A letter to love...

I write you an open letter

Of our love and passion

Rise and fall

Sanity and folly

A story that speaks all.

I paint it red for you to read

You like it when it speaks of love

The love we had

When millions saw

It lived with us

Till death took you apart.

I write this letter to an address unknown

I hear you whisper from a dense zone

Not clear to be held so tight

I hear you for the last time.

Living a life without a soul

I can’t keep my heart for long

Here, I wish I could fly

To a destination unknown

Where I lie in your arms

And never wake up to the dreams of past.

The already lost love

It was an urge

A habit, of sorts

The perfumed body of thoughts

I wanted that all.

In small proportions

I loved the entire artwork

It seemed as a masterpiece

And I wanted to keep it alive

In my dreams, in my heart

In my memories,

Of love and failure.

A present so beautiful

Turned itself into an ugly past

A love forbidden, I was asked to pass.

The scripture of my love

Suddenly shook to reality

And burnt down to ashes

The moment I touched it.

You can’t rub

The already written script

The already told fortune

The already whispered thoughts

And the already lost love.

Love thy eyes

Shredded bits of love

Now fall upon my cheeks

I see you standing afar

Looking beyond me,

No words needed

Not your soul anymore

I live in peace

In the world of my own.

You are dreadful,

The beast of my sanity

You are heinous,

The selfish mate of mine

Yet it hurts me deep inside

The mere presence of your eyes

Why it still reminds me of our times?

The mere presence of your eyes!

I ran to forests to hide my bones

It followed me to the hilltop

The fire eyes me deep inside

And I can’t fight the presence of your eyes.
