Laughing with You

You tell me,

“Don’t do that.”

I reply,

“No. I will."

You sulk,

and you frown.

I smile.

Sure,

I will 

never do that.

You know 

I do all this drama

to see that

cute, little pout

your lips form.

And we laugh,

like we always do,

knowing

this will

go on

and on

and on,

my love.

Mad Love

Oh yes,
Love is blind.
What can it make you do,
apart from caring,
hoping and loving more?

Mad love,
maddening love,
madly in love.

Haunted

I vowed to not write love poems
Atleast until I fall in love with someone else.
But how can I
When I haven't forgotten her yet?
There have been days when hope was my food,
Hope was my medicine.
But these days, hope is my hemlock,
Hope is my source of guilt.

Irony,
I thought I'd be writing in the same manner*
On a different muse.
But here I am,
Writing in a different manner
On the same muse.

Love doesn't die,
And so wouldn't I.


* - as in happy love poems on a different person.

Tribute to My Love

Like a butterfly she came flying
Into the garden of my heart.
Mysterious notions implying
Made cupid shoot at me his dart.

Happy and thankful am I
For whatever she had done.
For a few months in my sky
She was the ever effulgent sun.

She sparked without doubt
A beautiful flame in me.
In my heart did sprout
A strong evergreen tree.

Love taught me hope.
Love taught me patience.
Love was my dope.
Love strengthened my relations.

It was awesome from the start,
But the bliss was impermanent.
A deep feeling of this sort
Is the heart's true ornament.

I've learnt so much so far,
Lessons needed for life.
I didn't end up in a bar.
So, happy will be my wife.



NOTE: I'm referring to my prospective wife. :P

A Silent Wait

Ebullient I become
When I talk about you to my friends.
My passion overflows
When I even utter your name.
The fact that I'm younger than you
Was a bitter pill to swallow.
But the sweetness of love
Made it dissolve within no time.

I feel extremely happy
When you say something good.
I feel equally sad
When you show signs of moving away.
I can't force you to love me,
For love knows no such things.
I can only express.
I can only hope.
I can only wait
While I silently continue to love.

My love for you
Gave me excessive pain.
I found solace when I heard,
"No pain, no gain."

There are numerous things unknown.
There are numerous doubts unsolved.
That doesn't hurt me at all.
As there are numerous reasons to be happy for,
Numerous things to look forward for.
And I'm highly hopeful and sure
That I'm destined to live a fairy tale.

Infinity Unlimited

Infinite questions, unanswered.
Infinite words, unspoken.
Infinite dreams, unfulfilled.
Infinite memories, unperturbed.
Infinite stories, untold.
Infinite messages, unexchanged.
Infinite events, unexpected.
Infinity unlimited - my love.

Mad Perseverance

Beautiful princess in vermilion shoes,
Seeing her my heart did I lose.
She smiled at me and walked away, but
Forever in my heart she will stay.

Faraway and fast did she walk.
Only in verses do I now talk.
She taught me to love, she enriched my art.
She took with her my little heart.

Stones at me my friends pelt.
'Cause in beautiful dreams do I melt.
I enjoy those moments unworried of my fate,
For I'm only happy, me she doesn't hate.

She has now entered an unknown territory,
Which has a prince and spikes on its periphery.
The walls are thick and really high, but
My heart tells me, "Never-say-die".
