She flutters in her lovely world as lightly as ever
Astonished gaze of mine never ceases to follow her,
A magic trick of beauty that’s meant to wander forever
Hold tight instead and you’d be snuffing out her color...
There are very few things in life that come really close to your heart. I want you to not fall for each one of them. Sometimes, just let them be. The same things may not handle your expectations and actually are at a risk to lose their own meaning in the process of being yours. So be careful.

I showed her what the books meant
While we spent
Countless hours chasing butterflies
Travelling thousands of miles
And she’d quote something
Once in a while
As I struggled
To keep up with the adrenaline rush
Seeing her blush
In the woods along the river
We’d set up camp at night
All I knew was fright
As she held me closer tight
She’d show me the star
And I’d name it right
Every single time
And I’d make a rhyme
To suit her line
When she said something
But I'd lose
When she’d put up a fight
Arm wrestling or jungle trivia
It was her area
In that she’s a star
At par
With the flowers who blossom
In the *****
Of forests
Both thinking
As if they own it
She’s a delight
Like the moonlight
You get to see
After the sun’s long gone
And it’s mad time to be
Adventurous about the things
Human beings
Have forgotten somehow
She dances to the tune
Most ears can’t hear
I just had to bear
A little while with her
And here I am
With my feet in the air
As the rain pours
And I find the choirs
Sung by translucent pearls
It’s been a while now
And I must write another poem
It’s going to be about her
And nature

Wait, aren’t they the same?
All I want to do is hold her hands as we lie down on a frozen lake looking at stars.

I’ve created a world
Of my own,
It’s in my mind
Safe and sound.

I’m the only
Citizen of it,
I live happily
By my own rules.

I’m inviting you
As a guest,
To peek inside
Because I like you.

But you know
It's not a glimpse,
It's much more
It’s a journey.

You will start
Loving it,
As the time
Passes by.
(It will happen,
trust me!)

Don’t forget
That you are,
But a traveler
On exploration.

Don’t Demand
Citizenship one day,
As I will
Definitely decline.
(You needed to ask
and that’s not right.)

It’s not that
You can’t be,
A part of
My world.

If you
Are a part
You’d fit in
Perfectly.
(I hope so,
I Sincerely do)

It will be
Something magical,
That will happen
Naturally, unknowingly.

You wouldn’t feel
The need to ask,
And I wouldn’t feel
The need to answer.

We’d only
Feel our worlds,
Expand and
Become infinite.

All my dreams
Will be yours,
And all yours
Will be mine.

As even I
Am a visitor,
To your world
For this while.

Loving is
2 people,
completing
A puzzle.

Each one
Missing dearly,
A few
Critical Pieces.

Each one
Having just,
The perfect
Partial view.
While everyone thinks that Love is a concept of perfection, I think it's exactly opposite of that. No matter how hard you try, you will only truly know a small part of other person. So I want to tell you that don't try too hard to make all the things fall into place. Be what you are, let the other person be what that person is and see how you two go together. Enjoy your puzzle.

All of your thoughts,
All the words you’ve ever said,
All of your touches,
All the stories you’ve ever made...
All of your songs,
All of your handwritten notes,
All of your photos,
All of your beautiful clothes…
Resurface in my dreams
****** night after night,
I wake up in cold sweat
To find you nowhere in sight…

Kaleidoscope of my restless mind
Shows a new picture of you and me,
Solace for the scattered memories
Light of future those couldn’t see…

I can’t bathe in your light anymore
Million stars successfully keep us apart,
All that remains is ether without you
Aimlessly I find your reflection in art…

I let my heart get ripped so often
Try to find happiness in what remains,
I know my dreams are broken
But I like to love the fragments…

— The End —
