Poem
Ever touched a cactus? When your grandma said, don't touch it And your curious heart just couldn't listen Then, your lil rosy hands set their fingers On that green plant, For a second, nothing happened And your racing heart relaxed But then it skipped a beat And you realise how itchy it is And you scream coz your palm is burning And even after applying all the home-made pastes The pain doesn't go away And you cry and blame your heart for Stepping into everything without thinking Just to satisfy the need of giving you tachycardia Same is with love The heart plays violin without asking And it all smells lavender The dahlias are growing around And you start craving for that vanilla relationship That one second when nothing happened is like Those days when you write letters And feel that this is it But oh you, naive you Your eyes fail to see Your ears fail to hear Your mind fails to sense That it was all an illusion and that you should've listened to your gut that said "Don't touch it" " Don't touch this plant, you will get hurt" Now your hair are a mess and eyes swollen Tears have dried but heart still broken "Maybe, maybe, if, I would have, I could have But I didn't " that's all you can think Advices and sympathy are like that paste, healing but that suffering just doesn't go away. Shakespeare and Elizabeth They all lied Love is no paradise If anything it is, it feels like hell Swimming in the lake of fire Feeling cold and dead You wouldn't take it all back, if offered Because your heart of gold Has fallen in love That’s all I wanna ask through whatever I am writing today Is this love? Is this what they call angelic, magical, noble and pure?
