I've hoped this day would never come
But here we are and I stay numb
You hate my presence, you don't like me
The sun will never shine as brightly
As in the day when you were happy
When we were talking what can happen
I hate myself for those dumb words
And now I know that you're my world
You are so smart, you are so sweet
The better girl I will not meet
Forgive me, honey, I was dumb
Our better days are yet to come

Never knew such kind of pain can exist in my heart
Until you came in my life o my dreamy princess!!!
My heart fell in love with you but you taught my heart
To suppress the feelings
without offering any healings
My feelings for you are so deep, so blue,
so true, so divine and inexplicable.
But the work of suppressing such feelings
without any healings
is really heart breakable
Whenever I saw you, I found me rejoicing because I could listen to
my heart beat beating for you o my dreamy princess
I found my mind thinking about you, found my soul dancing with you and
my body leaning towards you.
You are the most beautiful girl to me on this planet OO my dreamy princess
Your smile,, your eyes,, straight away synchronized with my heart and
created a divine relation with you
And my heart started following you OO my dreamy princess!!!
You are the one whose face comes to my mind whenever i listen to any
romantic song....
You are the one with whom i want to walk when i walk alone...
You are the one with whom i can compare no one oo my dreamy princess!!!
But slowly slowly, i realised that it was only my heart who was in love
and your heart had no feelings of love.

I had a deep sea of feelings for you and my heart always kept on assuming..
that there must be at least a small pond of feelings in your heart as well.
But my heart betrayed me oo my dreamy princess
and now the pain of this hurting heart is so deep , so blue...
that it is trying various things for forgetting you..

I always was the follower of heart .
But now I say to everybody “NEVER FOLLOW YOUR HEART”
Because following my heart took me to the false illusion..
Where there was no destination.
And when i realized this fact ,
I was left to travel the backward heartbreaking journey alone..
which is full of pain and thorns.

I learnt to love from you
But I couldn’t learn how to forget..
And this is the my regret.

I stutter, words burn,
Lipton shades drench our desk,
I turn your world like a dollar,
But you were already rolled out

You might play my smile like a violin,
Those feline eyes, in there wounded design,
It is fur that can’t trim,
Shedding ****** like ashes,
Petting you, as the comforters descending,

Blood is a blooming bass,
Whispering,
“You fit in my vase,
The sun you may taste”

Glowing far beneath a band of burning crystal,
He drifted through silence, heartbroken and distal—
A whisper of frost left behind by trailing light,
As the comet passed far above in endless night.

He sang to distant suns, though they raised no refrain;
His voice, just a glimmer beneath the comet’s train.
No orbit, no axis, in his celestial drift—
Just the chill of pale starlight, too distant to shift.

Yet, far on the curve of the comet’s silver flare,
She wandered through silence, though as yet unaware—
A shimmer in motion and untouched by regret,
Her path not his own, though it had not diverged yet.

Though light-years apart in their transcendent array,
A trace of astral longing had altered her way,
Their paths, though still distant, were to cross in the night,
Beneath the comet, passing by in stellar flight.

From my debut collection—If Saturn Should Fall— now available!

I trace your name across the night,
With solar ink and lunar light,
Each syllable, a burning thread
‘Tween stars that have not shifted red
That I still count each night in bed.

I know you do the same for me
Beneath some distant canopy.
Upon your lips, my name a sigh,
A whispered vow to midnight sky
That tethers us, both you and I.

Our names are written line by line,
With diamonds set to intertwine
As constellations from above,
Devoted to the keeping of
The tacit truth of starlit love.

Would you dance among the stars with me,
Across the opaline galaxy,
And swirl the hem of your sable gown,
Where stardust stirs before falling down?

We’d glide around the rings of Neptune,
Untouched by the distant solar swoon.
His moons could softly light our ballroom,
Suspended where the nebulae bloom.

Triton’s glow will send a silver beam,
Casting shadows in our cosmic dream,
While his frosty crystals, hanging near,
Become our glittering chandelier.

Yet all I seek in this celestial tide
Is not the stars—only you by my side.
For even galaxies collapse and die,
But a love like ours will outlast the sky.

How do I look at the one I love, and tell myself it’s time to walk away,
When my heart aches and is begging me to stay,
Not for more,
Nor for less,
Just to hold her in my arms for one more day,

How do I fall for a heart that only torments me,
When every word out of those lips, hurts gently,
For every glance speaks, flirts in disguise
Says more with none, a tale in those eyes,

How will I feel another , when we are entwined,
When your memory is etched in the back of my mind,
And In touch, its only you i wish to hold,
For no skin feels right, and embrace is cold,

How do I unwrite chapters you wrote,
When your name is like a thorn to my throat,
And eyelashes curl like waves of dark oceans,
Edged as a scythe, drowns me in emotions,

How would you ask me not to grieve,
For if it were mine to choose, Id never leave,
And i did not walk away, rather was torn,
Off a love so sacred, off a bond unborn,
