I sinned by being in love. I shall atone for my crimes. When I will be sentenced to death, Let me but make one final wish. I will then wish to kiss her, Just a hundred times. Then kiss her all But leaving one kiss behind. And I will tell her I will return For that one kiss I never touched. As I leave with the rest And embrace death Oh! So hapily.

Sinned
Bury my love with me, Let it not reach clouds above and fires below. Let them starve for it, Like a madman all Gods and Devils. Ask me not why I want so, For my love is greater than one and all. I'll let my love rest with me, Why ? Because not all are worthy of it. Burn me, bury me, take away my heart. When burnt, my love will be turned to ashes, When buried, thorns shall grow, And when my heart's taken, All shall end. I'm though a mortal, let my love remain alive. And when I'm reborn, it will come to me. Just as waves do come back to shore.

Unworthy
As pure as a morning's dew drop, Her eyes glared upon mine. An intent to blow my heart away, Yet to ease them with just a stare. And her hair like waves in the sea, And I was a shore to catch them free. I could hear her, faintly whispering to me, Her lips remained unmoved And her ways spoke love to me.

Purity
Your heartbeats echoed through The silence between my heartbeats. Our hearts do not beat as one, Rather it completes one another. I wandered around, lost in the daylight And you gave me shed to rest. I am imperfect all alone. You complete me.

YOU.
What echoes in my mind Much louder than my love for you, Is a question of "what if?". "What if I wake up tomorrow, And you are gone; Gone in the arms of another And embracing what could have been us?". A thought lingers in me, Piercing through my skin, Suffocating and choking me, Making me gasp for air through the night. Even with love so great, I fear; "What if one day I am no longer yours, And you're no longer mine. With heavy chest and a light mind, Will I live or will I die?".

What If
If I ever cease to exist, Give all of me to another. Let me live through another man. Just don't give my heart and eyes. For my heart knows only to love her, And eyes dread to see her. I worry not of the ears As they shall be buried away with me, And not hear anyone else's voice. I worry not of the mouth, As they shall fall quiet, And never mutter another word less her name. And I worry not of the skin As they shall rot away, And not feel another touch not her's. But I do repeat again to you. Let my heart and eyes be mine only. Let her be the last thing my heart beats for. Let her be the last thing I see.

If Life Ceased
I am a sailor in pages. The words becomes vast seas and oceans To which I sail away. I live in the breeze that blows, And in the wave that flows. I seek wisdom for treasures, And love as my destination. I have no form to be seen in. I am the bird that flies across, The fish that swims away. I am the wind caressing all, Then again, I am the sailor set to sail With all hands on deck and no fixed aim. Adventurous though the heart is, The mind sometimes worries. "Will it all be in vain ?" "Will I ever find the treasures, Or reach my destination ?" Will I be telling stories to the deaf ? Or showing colours to the blind ?

The Sailor
She is a poem not written in pages. Her presence is a muse to my wrecked words. My love does not seem enough; Enough to fill your heart, so pure. Though scarce is my love, I give it all to you. Then the love, I let it run; Run through my veins, oh ! So freely. When I breathe, I breathe in all of you. All I see is a love so blind and beautiful. When with your eyes you stare into mine, I see myself being loved a way I thought wasn't possible. I feel at ease with your hand in mine. Your laughter like a melody Soothe these tone deaf ears. Oh! What a sight to behold. I love you with all of me. I worship you though no temple seen. I pray to you for you each night. I have never been so in love before. Our love that exists in white, Shall not be tainted by other eyes. Together, to forever, we shall walk With two hearts as one.

A Muse
A burden I'm willing to carry. A chaos I fall into, While craving peace. And with which I'm purely comfortable. It is love.

Love.
Love's but a torture to the mind. Yet also a symphony, a soothing melody played amidst chaos so loud.

Soothe
To love and be loved. A poet's dreams through ages. A thought that aged like a fine wine. A feeling nurtured for emptiness. A piece painted by delicate hands, On walls that once was a cage. To love and be loved. A life lived half; and half by her. A tear shed and smile captured. I walked with her hand in mine, Holding me as though a child; A child of the love That was grown to be one day mine.

To Love And Be Loved
... Had a fine sumptuous meal, And received all good wishes, Pal you looked so happy today, Plus 28 years you completed, You shall remember it all. Best moments were spent with us, In the lab we are one big family, Rings of halo on your head, Today on your birthday, Heavy meals we all had, Doing a lunch we did enjoy, Another birthday comes so late, Yes, obviously of the other labmates. Afterwards, we might get separated, Resting and working for ourselves, Venerated is our Dr Mohanty sir, Inches we are getting stronger, Never getting discouraged, Define he does a father.
