"Don't worry about me, I am not your problem"
Oh but darling, you are my *solution
Urmila Feb 2015
We are what we are,
And we are nothing more,
But what if what we are,
Is just what I was looking for?

It
The world around didn’t matter,
You didn’t matter; I didn't matter;

It was spinning around, noise,
It wasn’t clear, but it was
And it wasn’t clear what ‘it’ was

People were going about the motions,
Like these thoughts were not real

‘Can’t you hear them?’ I thought to myself
And I swear as I was thinking, I thought I heard you
I thought I heard you say, ‘I hear you’
But you didn’t. But it still feels like you did
But you didn't

It was spinning around, noise,
It wasn’t clear, but it was
And it wasn’t clear what ‘it’ was

The world around didn’t matter,
You didn’t matter; I didn’t matter
Incoherence

Let's write ourselves a poem,
You be the verse, I'll be the rhyme;

Let's find ourselves a feast of words,
And slash them down on white.

Let's sit ourselves in a quiet corner,
So temptation isn't bright;

Let's be ourselves for each other,
And spend our days in the light.

Let's be together for once, forever,
The rest can wait in line;

Let's not change the mellow mood,
And forget the needle and the pine.

Let's lay by ourselves for a little moment,
While I spell our love out on your spine;

Let's share ourselves a life's dream,
And paint it on the starry skies.

Let's pen ourselves our memories,
To remember for all of time...

*I told you we'd write ourselves a poem,
But you ditched me for the dime!

Take me in, take me in, sea
One with you, let me be
The loud silence we share is a sign,
I'm a wave, the shore isn't mine

The carcass was made to wait,
For nobody wanted to light the pyre
Urmila Jan 2015
There is an odd serenity in his eyes,
It's my own version of paradise
