For some reason, I have an illusion that the weather is changing.

The time ticks away!

My heart beats faster!

My mind searches for a word to say something!

You are everything that stays in my eyes! (My eyes can only picture you)

I got angry over my eyes.

and asked my eye lids to close.

The seconds that pass since

are like whiplashes on my back,

the pain while writing poetic lines (that are like the marks from the whiplash) is my language that goes
unwritten.

You stood like an ocean.

I am a kid. I just see the waves.

Pour me into the burning fire,

I will be like a waterfall where you could shower.

Oh! The whole city sleeps closing their eyes

The soundless night! Oh!

It is only me who do not sleep yearning (for her) and withering like you Oh moon!

I live in a dream that dances like the peacock’s colorful tail feathers!

I stretched my hands to caress you.

and why did I fail doing it?

Why does it take forever to give my first kiss?

The lotus is about to bloom (yearns and burns within)

Do not go far from me…

and do not ask me to go far from you…

Both our lips are

thorn misrepresented as flower isn’t it?

(if they do not meet)

I slip a word that our body is not a hinderance.

But I too say that it is a lie and you knew it…

Come close to me.

You showed up in my dreams.

You hid yourself when I woke up.

In my dreams you pour like rain drops.

My eyes yearns for you.

It is love’s intoxication.

But a weird hesitation, the minute I see you.

The time shrinks second by second!

My love’s life span melts little by little!

Why does my heart beats faster?

Fates plays its mischief.

Please do not part away from me, my love.

Why?

Why?
Why?

My love.
