It came like this: Tousled sandy hair, chin held high One from a regime where love is a lie Slowly but surely, we took the cake And fell into a pattern I thought was fake Honest confessions showed your true colours Turning us from roots to flowers Which bloomed into late night calls And that’s where I thought the end was, overall. But you and New Years brought the two of us To a place where I couldn’t have seen us When you didn’t bide your time & grabbed my hair A month later, all I did was hold your stare. We lay barefoot on beds Stayed apart till light left But our efforts were in vain Now that our truths no more restrain But Love, as long as I can hold on the happiness I have found with you, I’ll be satisfied & follow where life leads me with you. That’s how I met Love.

How I Met Love
I'll keep you close, closer than most Closer than friends or lovers or foes Keep a part of you, you'll never know The sail will remain as the wind goes. Wise men once said "Take what you need" But what if what's needed is out of reach? In the waters of projection, to reach out, to breathe Is a trap in itself, you'd need to need me. My clandestine muse, my spring bloom Covered by all in eradicant gloom Your rays of light will still hit the moon But pulling back from you will be my doom. I'll keep you far, further than stars Blurring my vision, chipping my heart Keep a part of you, watch from afar Moon dims as Sun beams, worlds apart. Wise men once said "Choose roads that lead higher" But now I musn't bear you. Oh, what liars! Chafing my soul, coaxing my fire I know that sooner or later you'd tire. My illicit lust, my timely friend I'm constantly fighting off, having to fend All those to whom lust you might lend But what I need is your love, my merciless end.
