what i’d give up..

the silence that i am
feeling comfortable with
when you are around
is haunting me
the very first night
i had to spent away
from my sanctuary -
your arms wrapped
around me.

the soundless laugh
i shared with you
the few stolen times
i let my walls
crumbled
i let my flesh exposed
i allowed you
to see through me…
if i could…
i would definitely
go back.
and stay.

the simplest touch
the playful nudge
the meaningful stares
the wordless talk…
you don’t have any idea
what i’d give up
to stay…
to spend another day…
another night
with you…

from life to love

life

angst.shiver

unrequited

pain.remorse

blink

forever.satisfied

beauty

burden.complete

tears

hate.bliss

love

untitled…

should i be bothered
that I’m still expected to
say less?

should i stop trying for
my voice to be heard?

could i move even an inch
without people staring
and questioning that
that simple move?

could i  breathe without
thinking anybody would
mind that simple involuntary
gesture?

could i start living for
myself without anybody
branding me as one
ungrateful child?

could i touch anything i
want without having to ask
for one’s permission?

could i love someone without
thinking of the raised bar
given by those people around me…
suffocating me?

could i chose my own path
without having to look back
for someone else approval?

would you hold
my hand if i
reached out
for someone to
understand?

would you walk beside me
tell me
that i am doing the
right thing?

will you stay
with me…
and
never leave?

don’t we just…

love people

saying things that

compliment our hearts..

love the sound of

kisses under the rain…

love the taste of

heaven as you kiss…

don’t we just…

love the touch

of somebody’s breath

against the back of

our neck?

just love the feeling

of someone

reaching out

just to hold our hand?

don’t we just

love the silence

that comes when words

are not needed..

don’t we just

love the feeling

of emptiness

and patiently waiting

for someone to fill you up…

another set of unanswerable questions…

how can a simple touch

would mean more than

what you can say?

 

how can you feel being home

just by spending a few hours,

few minutes with someone?

 

how can you want more time

or wishing for time to be still

and wanting to spend it

around a single person?

 

how can you ask for

something you know

you can never take care of

without hurting anybody else?

 

how is it possible to be complete

yet unsatisfied?

 

how is it possible to look at

a person without getting tired,

without wanting to blink?

 

how can you love a person so much

but not having enough courage

to let go of everything else you are

holding just

to hold that person?

 

how can you say you

really are in love

without doing anything to prove

whatever you are feeling?
