And Now For Something Completely Different

With the help of my heart I breathe..
With the help of my brain I see..
With the help of my conscience I speak.. 
With the help of my blood I sense..
With the help of my skin I smell..

I grow shy and blush instantly
If at all a flower stares at me.
Though I decide eschewing him
I day dream cascading with his love..
Deliberately forget crucial tasks to be done.

Infatuated or rather I say obsessed
On him who swells & dwells within me
Numbing my nerves to the pain..
Even if I step on glowing embers.

As I am diving myself 
into the fire of relationship,
Romance seems to be dancing 
same as peacock in the rain.

I blink and think,
sink and wink,
kick and click,
Feel like newborn chick
Dressed in pink..
Finally fall sick,
Finding the gimmick of Love!!
