Permission to Stay

Tell you something
Something funny in it itself because
It doesn't sound to make sense.
I intentionally keep around you because
Deep down inside something tells me
"Someday it's going to have to be me to save you"
And I just want to be around you until that day
That's why I stay
Even when you turn a blind eye on me
Even when I pretend to be silent
I still want to be there
Be there around you
Even in the least possible ways that I can.


Meeting Ma

Who are you?
Where were you?
What’s the connection?
Why now?

My mind ponders,
In figment of imagination, it wanders.
Seeking truths in riddles better left untold.

As I walked in alone,
What was the calling, unknown?
Masked in a cloak, perhaps a riddle to see,
Waiting for you to appear, to help untangle me.

What is pure joy?
What is elation?
An infant cradled in mothers’ arm,
The embrace, the warmth.
The laughter of a child,
All innocence, free from guile.

The maiden glance, the nascent word.
Phew…Effervescent beats surged within,
A fountain of joy bubbling unseen.
Your aura, brushed in hues of rainbow’s gleam.
Your vibes, as pleasant as the memory of a childhood dream.
And I stood smitten, shaken & stirred,
Awoken from the slumber, my vision blurred.


Sometimes, a lifetime is never enough,
Sometimes, a moment is magic in puff.
Sometimes, words vanish, unable to explain,
Sometimes, silence sings what the heart can’t contain.

Walking in, I didn’t know my calling,
Saying goodbye, my thoughts and feelings were sprawling.
Blessed I am to have experienced you,
Pending tale, yet untold, will follow.

Premium MemberDear Secret Love

Dear Secret Love, 

Love is a many-colored arch 
displayed by rays of sun 
and best seen in the wake of clouds 
just after storms are done. 

Love is a rosebud reaching up 
to drink its fill of dew 
that it might blossom in the warmth 
of sun that shines anew. 

Love is a midnight symphony. 
Its music only heard 
in hearts awakened by the song, 
as joy inspires the bird. 

Love is a sign of hope that shines 
for anyone who'll see, 
who'll lift his eyes from earth to sky 
and dream of what might be. 

So if you'll lift your downcast face 
and look for signs above, 
you'll see a rainbow, kiss the dew 
and hear the song of love. 

Then, hopefully you'll understand, 
I am your rainbow light, 
I am the rose that thirsts for you, 
I am your love songs in the night.

Distance Between Us Is But A Glimpse Of The Moon

I search the heavens for a trace of you,
Only to find your shadow in the lunar glow.
Its silver gaze stirs memories anew,
A lantern lit for hearts, only those longing...know.

Though oceans swell and continents divide,
Time has sealed the pathways we once knew,
Yet the moon still carries whispers to my side—
Distance between us is but a glimpse of the moon.

It shines for both, though miles apart we stand,
A bridge of light no darkness can erase.
I reach for you with memory’s gentle hand,
And touch your soul within that glowing face.

So long as moonlight crowns the endless skies,
Our love endures, where death itself denies.

A conversation

strangely for you, i am yours.
odd defiance of the greatest, 
my body craving what your hunger lay.
trace my ache with your warmth, 
fiercely dissolve it under your tongue.

wishes upon the stars
on the river where dogs bathe,
wailed in agony within this realm
this realm of your embrace

i do love you, i do unravel
like fixtures of the skylight burning my skin, 
a ticket to the sun in itself as a gift
undiscovered

—

tragically for you, i am yours.
screams of agony under the willow tree,
bled into the snow covered ground.
darts of misfortune piercing your skin,
fixed towards your unbroken fixture.

frightening darkness fleeting above you,
all the stars have died along with your last breath.
spontaneous lament sprayed among the graveyard,
built for your gracious grieving.

you do love, you do unravel.
heavenly kiss from above, 
travelled around the sun in search for your lips
discovered


I Am Nobody for You

I am nobody for you.
You don't know I exist, too.
I'm a simple, shy girl
with some sixteen-year-old fantasies, too.

You don't know me, 
and I either, too -
but there's something 
I feel, too.

Wanna step up, 
getting high with you, 
scared to fall
in the images, too.

How say hi? 
How say bye? 
I'm here, 
watching you 
side of my eye.

I'm stressed out, 
how to say you...
I'm that nobody 
for you,
'cause we are
in our own cage, too.

my unmatched love

love is an overused and time worn concept 
marriage is banal 
yet nothing about your love is threadbare
you are my evermore
you wear me thin but even the thinnest strings of my fate spell out your name
there is no sphere where waking up on your sore bicep takes a backseat in my thoughts 
you are not a part of my anatomy; you are it. 
my heart my soul my mind 
you own rent free space 


you eclipse my ambition 
nothing holds a candle to the love i’ve cultivated for you over these years 


you are a paradigm of the moment where i realise what your love does to me 
you make me a wreck and yet all it takes to fix me is you 
you are the poison and you are the antidote 
you are the totality of my thesis; you are the only thing i understand.

Tonight

I want tonight to be the night
The one that we keep insight
A forever moment cherished in time
The work is done, and the hill is climbed
One special evening with you cradled in my arms
I’ve fallen for your unique and beautiful charms
Now I need to show you my light inside
From a heart that nearly died
You are my everything
And I can’t wait to hear you sing
Just this once baby girl I want you to know
I need us to take it ever so slow
Please let me be your person of trust
My everything for you is an absolute must
I want tonight to be the night
The one that we keep insight
One special evening with you cradled in my arms
I’ve fallen for your unique and beautiful charms

attachment

i try and paint you in a bad light inside my head 
to create a reason to get over you but no matter how hard i try
all i can think of is you
you consume my mind
take control of my speech 
i will always drift back to you no matter how hard the universe can rip me apart from you
you have my heart
my lungs
my blood 
my mind
you have my soul
do you need anything else
i’ll give you all you need of me and still love you the same as you leave me to rot
so you can feel better
i would carve holes in my skin if you wanted to touch my bones
all for you
i would do anything for you
you are like roots wrapping yourself in my chest, 
coiling around my heart,
puncturing holes in my flesh to encase me in your grasp.
i’ll bleed out if it helped you
i’ll bleed out and die without your touch or love 
without your kisses or hugs
without you
i’ll watch you like the mona lisa
loving from afar

Premium MemberDays of Your

Lots of poems did I write
Most were written late at night
For what I'd always strive to do
Was have one waiting there for you
When you arose, the first bouquet
Of fragrant words to start your day
I used to tell you things that way 
Since to your face I could not say

But now it seems sometimes I can
I know not how, nor why, nor when 
I started feeling comfortable 
Enough to tell you almost all
Not everything though, deep inside
I hold some back, they're set aside
Until such time as may permiss
Commencement starting with a kiss

Premium MemberI Thought

I thought perhaps you'd gone away
I looked for you the other day

I thought about what I should do
I didn't want to message you

I thought you'd call but after 4
I knew you wouldn't anymore

I thought, I'll put away my phone
Then longed for you that night, alone

Premium MemberWaiting Moments

Periods of silence
Please never again
I really don't like them
The wait until when
The silence has ended
Sometimes long it's been
Though I still wrote poems
For you to read then

Premium MemberLoves

My love for you is endless
My love for you is true
My love for you is timeless
My love forever, you
Your love for me is priceless
Your love for me the glue
That holds my heart together
To you I'll say, I do

STAY

Come near do not take your gaze from mine
The heavens have nothing on the stars of your eyes
If you're willing take my hand. let our destinies entwine
If not then fear not for your company will grant me respite
A reprieve from the death of love unachieved
The loss of my heart to an unassuming thief
To be deprived of mourning causes even greater grief

So stay even if to leave if best as you may believe
Stay so your presence will shatter my deluded heart
Stay so your presence will not be granted a deserters part
Stay so that when I heal. my heart will be built anew
Stay so that when your heart is given to another
I'll be devoid of envy and my happiness for you will be true

        ~ To the Tune of 'One More Night'
                 by Phil Collins ~

        One more write, I gotta do just
        one more write, there’s gotta be
               just one more write
               left in good old me tonight 

        Babe, without you I’m so lonely
        but what moves me now is only 
               One more write, I gotta do just 
               one more write, for you and me tonight
