Again

You place yourself so calm
On your grey throne
Your fingers flipping pages
But they do it alone



You fix your gaze onto the stone arch
But what you really see
Are all your thoughts
Playing in front of you like a movie



Your head, it tilts and you see things in new light
You fix the puzzle and utter an 'aah'
Here I am, losing myself in your company
There, you've reached a destination so far



It's you who's closer to the fireplace
But to me, the warmth here, astounds
The flames get wilder in my heart
And with each beat, harder, it pounds

There you are, seated so calm
Warm...in a place so sound
Here I am, again, helpless and falling,
Losing myself in the love I once found



And I'd drift closer to grab your attention
Take a breath or two, from you
And give you more
Into this moment of intense, I'd lure you

I'd break the barriers,
share this rush with you, but how?
I wouldn't want to break
This placid moment you're in now.

Is it a sin?

We live in a world that talks of love
A world that can feel none
Sweet little words to utter
But nothing's sweet inside anyone



Here, if you feel love
They shall mock you
For here, love's unknown
If anyone feels...it's very few



Is it a sin that I see
A little beyond I'm shown?
Is it wrong to feel
And feel it alone?



How does the beauty of love die
If it is not returned?
Why should we taint its virginity
In striving for it to be earned?



Why can't love be given here
And cherished there?
Why not let it be simple
And let it remain fair?

Her Solace

Each time there was chaos
Filled on the outside
The thought of him
Always eased the tide



And escape she did, into his world
Untouched by the storm
Protected from this world so cold
His thoughts kept her warm



Each time, unfailingly
He made her smile
And amusing it is
He knew not all this while



And then she wrote a song and some more
For the man who's more than just her muse
And it amuses even more to see
To see the evident as truth, he'd refuse

When I'm Alone

Seated by the window
Under the calming moonlight
That soothing tune emerges
From the quiet in the night



And then, your face, it flashes
in front of my eyes, you know
It lights up my face
And causes the pupils to blow



A whiff of you, when I get
A whiff, I sense it fill up this space
Around, encircling me, I'm lost
Virtually, in your embrace



A spinning wave of an emotion
Resurrects from deep within
It surges to take control of me
It makes my head spin



To illustrate this feeling, I fail
This one that never goes dim
It echoes my heart's pound through my bones
It causes my eyes to brim

On Your Side


Let me just stay here
A little longer
For it feels warmer
Than outside, feels safer...



Let my head rest here
While I keep a busy ear
Counting your heart beat,
Let me stay, for this is sweet...



And when you open your eyes
Let me lose myself into them,
Lose myself to you,
Take me to your world.



And let me stay there
A little longer
For it feels warmer
Than the world outside, feels safer...



Because when I open my eyes,
Break this paradise
Of heart and mind, will resume a fight,
And I'll shut one up. Pack. Leave when the sky's light...

The Parallel Thought

You started with one, colonized an islet,
Then, conquered a bigger part and hastened that pound
You've climbed up too and made yourself
Comfortable in the thinking chamber



N now all I do is think
About the trees, the birds, the sun
About love, life and beauty
I think of you, I think of you



When I'm up, you're the first,
When I lay, you're the last,
And in between falling and waking,
And wakefulness until I fall



You play best friend to my thoughts
Keep them company
Even if they don't talk
You're by their side, you coexist



I tried to run, to hide myself
I tried to tame, to fool my self
I sighed, embraced, when all else failed
For you had conquered yet another part of me



But now all I do is think
About the trees, the birds, the sun
About love, life and beauty
I think of you, I think of you
