The first time I laid my eyes on you
I couldn’t help but wonder if you were heaven sent
Because you made my heart rate to rise above normal
And it told me to not waste anytime
To see your grin
And to hear your voice
And those two rudiments
messed up with my mental
Made me to hallucinate
When I see my imminent
By just beholding through your glittering eyes
In simple terms I mean
I loved you at first sight
dedicated to my former res mate

why do i love you?
this question keeps on popping on my mind
and i think i have several reason to explain why do i love you

maybe is because of your walk
because you walk as if you are stepping on ice
but what will happen when you get crippled?
that means my love for will fade away

maybe is because of your voice
because i think your voice was made to cheer me up
but what will happen when you become voiceless
my love for you will fade away also

maybe is because of your sparkly  eyes
which in them i can see the man i should be
but what if you lose your eyesight due cataracts
my will love  for you will evanescence

maybe is because of curvaceous body
because i think god spent all those seven days creating you
but what will happen if you become shapeless
so my love fade away

so then it came to my realization
i should not have reasons to you
because reasons do fade away
so i love you because i love you

The first day we met,
You asked for a pen—
One that wrote your name on my heart.
Since that day, my heart rate soared,
And as months passed,
You’re here, but not with me,
Only a piece of my soul remains.

Liking you would be an understatement,
For what I feel is richer than gold.
The reason? Your smile,
It makes birds sing a beautiful melody,
And your sparkling eyes
Reflect the man I aspire to be.

A magic pen,
Mending two broken hearts,
Helping me regain faith in love.
You are my fascination,
The reality of my imagination. 🥺

I’m trying to live a life with no lies,
Cutting loose from fake ties,
Leaving behind those friends
Who only held me back from trends.

I know this isn’t the end,
But the start of my life anew,
No knife in hand, no fights to pursue—
Just reaching for dreams and skies of blue.

I won’t rest until I’m the best,
With strength like The Rock’s chest,
Ready to face each test,
Seeking blessings, not betrayal or distress.

So I’ll lay low,
And remain unknown. 😞

I moved on because I was tired of your lies,
That our love was like ice—so cold, so unwise.
You never cared to compromise,
And kept saying my efforts were not the right size.

I was naïve, thinking I could break the ice,
Hoping you’d be the prize—only to find surprise,
In the shattered pieces of my heart sliced twice,
Leaving me alone as the world’s silent cries rise.

In that dark moment, I waited for the sunrise,
As I picked out bow ties and looked to the skies.
Now I’m left to fantasize,
Lost in the memory of your once-perfect eyes.

Why do you love me?
Why do I love you?
This question keeps echoing in my mind—
And I think I have some reasons, but do they hold true?

Maybe it’s the way you walk,
Each step like you're gliding on ice.
But if someday you couldn’t walk,
Would my love for you fade like melted frost?

Maybe it’s the sound of your voice,
A tone that seems crafted to lift me up.
But if you ever lost that voice,
Would my love go quiet, too, and just stop?

Maybe it’s the sparkle in your eyes,
Where I see the man I hope to be.
But what if cataracts stole that shine?
Would my love vanish, as sight turned to memory?

Or maybe it’s the curve of your form—
Like God spent those seven days sculpting you.
But if age or time changed that shape,
Would my love drift, forgetting its view?

Then, it dawned on me like a sunrise clear—
I shouldn’t love you for reasons bound to disappear.
Because reasons will fade like passing seasons,
So I love you simply because… I love you.
