Crossed the spot
Where i had sneaked out
With him
On one early morning
When there was chill in the air
Crisp breeze ran through our faces
As he drove me through
Those lanes lit by soft sunlight
Of the dawn hitting the ground
We had sipped some hot tea
To warm up our souls
Before i had tucked my cold hands
Back into his pockets
With his hand over mine
Basking in the sun that was up by then
He drove me back to our abode
To keep us warm and safe
And tucking us back to comfort
I cant write the way you do
Your words are heavy
He said even as I coaxed him to pen down a few
And then came what i never dreamt of
The most precious letter of all
It was a message
That he had thoughtfully crafted
He said he struggled with words
But no, he didnt!
The narrative was just beyond heartfelt
It was a note to me
Mustering all his vocabulary,
He picked wisely
Those pearls that would go to make the rarest necklace
After much cajoling he did
But what he did
Was a masterpiece to me
Penned by the likes of a poet
With deep invoked thoughts
What brilliance he held in his mind
And what power his words had
Who said love needs a language!
It dsnt
Only a trickle is enough for the stream
To turn into a gushing waterfall
I said to myself
As tears rolled down my eyes
Full of his love
Thank you
I said
And he still wondered why!
AND THIS IS WHAT HE PENNED DOWN...
LOVE ❤️
I dont even know where to begin, because every time I think of you my heart feels too full for words.
You are the calm in my chaos, the smile in my ordinary days, and the warmth I never knew I was missing... Loving you doesn’t feel complicated... it feels natural, like breathing. The way you laugh, the way you care, the way you simply exist... it all makes my world brighter lasan.
With you even silence feels beautiful. I dont need grand moments or perfect days. Just knowing you are mine and I am yours is more than enough. you have shown me a kind of love that feels safe, deep and real...
I promise to stand by you to support you in your dreams to hold you close when the world feels heavy and to remind you every single day how incredibly special you are...
Shumi, you are my favorite thought, my sweetest feeling and my forever choice.
Always yours
B 😘
The bird
The sky
The hands
The eyes
The room
The garden
The shadow
The light
The vibrance of colours
The depth of the black
The embrace
The lust
The tease
The anchor
The release
With what ease
He guided
And I followed
Effortlessly in the maze
I walked
He led my soul
Into the depths
Said
Fear not as you jump
In the deepest waters
Just in the middle
Of the chaos
And yet in peace
Was the home
Serene
Happy
Green grass
Blue sky
Yellow flowers
All lighting up
The rooms
Flushed with the sunrays
Besides the tree
You will still find me
With a pencil and paper
Sketching
The birds and the sky
That you once taught
Oh
The myth
The colours that popped out
From the kaleidoscope
I see us
Dancing happy
In love
Ouch
Drop it, you say
It's all a farce!
Wake up from the dream
You stupid soul
She realised
Picks up her glass
And raises a toast to her stupidity
Long back
It was done
She realised not even when she sat amid the shards
Stupid, she was!
Why does the heart not stop beating
No one hears it now
The noise is too loud
And the beats too faint i guess
To be heard
In the maddening cacophony
And the euphoria
Why should anyone hear this faint beat
Just too unbearable
As i hear it pounding
In my chest
Screaming to just go calm
Reduced to ash or dust am I???
I set you all free
So let this tiny pitiful heart just be
I talk
In an empty space
Void is all is left
My voice reaches none
I write
On a slate that is still bears the sketches you drew
And yet
You read not
Is it a sign?
Like a fool
I murmur
That falls into deaf ears
Expressions
Are just brushed off
I should stop i guess
For I matter not!
Let my voice fade
And you wipe off the slate
He knew my eyelashes by numbers
Well almost
He knew the hidden moles
Familar with all the scars
He had embraced me
He knew how my pupils would dilate
At his sight
How i would breathe heavy by his side
I grayed before him
And he could put a date to every sigle of my strands
He knew if my eyebrows were messed up
Or how left out was a single naughty hair
My grooming, the unkempt and disheveled me
He had seen me and he knew it all
He knew my tan marks
He could tell if i was upset by juat a glance
He knew if i would have put on one mg of body fat or lost it
He knew my misfits
And hated me in bulky clothes
He knew the colours that would lit me up
The accesories that would adorn me best
And the little things that would bring joy
The handmade jewelry
Or the braids he strung together
The fixtures he would do to patch the messy me
The brilliant potraits that would draw awe
Capured the bestest of my profiles
Wrote notes inspiring
The petals or flowers from the wild
The scents that would make me radiate
The silver which could dull even the best sparkles
Or the random sketches
Even the tattoo that i have on me is his
He knew i never asked for much
Nothing
I never asked foe anything but him
Then how did he miss out on something
That was so pronounced
My heart is bleeding
Oh! All is sucked out!
I am so drained now
Utterly unworthy i guess
How consumed i am with dejection
oh! What misery
And what fate!
They run deep
Some on my face
Some within the soul
Each one has a story
The wrinkles or the lines etched all over
Either I laughed and loved a lot
Or cried and shattered myself
But each is what makes me what I am
Thank you for those on me
That have brought me joy and ecstasy
Many are due to you
Deepened over time
As the feeling grew
So let the lines go deeper
Let them show
For that means I felt deep.
Gulped so much of you
Had no words
But to say
I do
Oh how i stumbled
And fumbled
Banged into strangers
And those i know
Looking out for you
In the crowd
I just called out
Your name aloud
Oh such freedom
I experience
As i call out your name aloud
I do
Is all i said
When i saw you
But that set me free
Now to wander
Beneath the greens
I chirp
And i say
I do
