You're more than just one dance

Bodies move across the room
But our eyes never cease to meet
"Stop teasing me with that smirk", I assert, "come make me bloom"
I try, but fail to lose control, as I draw closer, accepting defeat

Cast under your spell, I stand helpless, trembling, longing
For you to play your magic on me
Barely a touch and my heart starts singing
But this game you play feels like eternity

I feel like I'm standing naked in cold, pouring rain
As I crave for your warmth, come wrap me in your arms
I draw closer, my lips desperate...but in vain
You wickedly enjoy the show as I'm puppet to your charms

And after what feels like a lifetime, holding my hand, you finally
bless my mouth with yours, drinking love from my lips, holding me close,
As I match rhythm with you, I wish this dance goes on eternally
For this means so much to me, for you're the one I chose

I wouldn't be so easy for another, and surely not so soon
But love, it is something about you that makes me
Lose myself, that makes me dance to your tune
Beyond flesh and bones, you mean more to me

Know that I danced with you today
But you've touched not only my body, you've caused my heart to blossom too
I mean this when I say, I hope for you to stay
Be my love, for a lifetime, will you?

Broken, but breathing

You were like the wind
So swiftly, you came and made place for yourself,
Rushing through the holes in my heart
Making me whole again


Crazy promises, you made
Ones I laughed at, "don't be silly", I said
But who knew, ever so silently
I'd fall without being aware


And before I could catch my breath
Shattered, I lay there
You're nowhere around, only pieces of me
Sit here, to give me company


Kissed by cold emptiness
I stutter, but I manage to stand
You hit me hard, but you were beautiful
And for that beauty, I'll open doors to love again...

Just Then

She was about to kiss him and tell him how much she loved him...
Just then, he broke it to her, how madly in love, he is with her sister.


He was about to walk up to her and ask her out...
Just then, came a man, held her by the waist, and they left.


She wanted him to know, she loved him more than just a best friend...
Just then, he said, "I've figured it out, I'm not into women. I'm gay."


He grabbed her and kissed her, knowing they were home alone, and she wanted it...
Just then, she instinctively slapped him, saying she doesn't feel that way.


She always said she wasn't in love. But today, she called him to confess, she was falling...
Just then, he told her, he got over her. He's found a new girlfriend.

She'll be his, in another lifetime

It started as a spark, when she saw him
She knew not, of how he'd kindle a fire
But burn she must, the hope must go dim
Because life's a joke, destiny's satire


She isn't in love, but he liquefies her heart
Sadly, the heart must turn to stone
For they have to stop, what barely did start
The need's to keep away. The want's to not leave him alone


Two torn hearts, two lost souls
Came together...found peace
Only to cause deeper wounds, bigger holes
An intense pain, which is so hard to ease...


Two different worlds, impossible to fit
Together, but she takes a vow this day
This lifetime may not allow a union,
But she'll be his, in another life, if be in agreement, the universe may...

Macy

Another dab of red on her lip
A final spray of fragrance
Baubles cuffing her dainty wrists
And a spring in her step


She steps out and steps into the car
Their eyes meet, a sparkle across one of her 32
He nods with a giggle, "Finally, the day has arrived..."
Zestful fingers turn the key, the engine revs up


And like always, she completes his sentence
With a bright one across her face
"Yes, the day we set each other free."
And together they burst


While little Macy and Phillip
Make promises, young in love
From afar, below the cliff,
They see light shine so bright, like fire burst


And perhaps, they were only firecrackers
Thinks Phillip, his innocent mind
Unable to tell a blast from a burst
But Macy knows, for she caused the brakes to fail

Those 15 Minutes

Their eyes met, as her key united with the lock
Cajoled by his gaze, she changed course
And as she followed command, two pairs of lips
Curved, his demeanour turned coarse


As the door banged shut, unease flooded her mind
But from her heart, these clouds did glide
That thundered lustful thoughts
Which she failed to hide


He pulled her high, onto her toes
Bent to draw some passion, from her lips
Surrender she did, with her heart and soul
And followed course, her arms and hips


Sandwiched between his chest and the wall
Her heart surpassed a tempo she had not known
He hushed her gasps with his pursing lips
Causing a rhyme of moans


But just then, the mind resurfaced
Unable to stand, but had to run
Kissed goodbye, headed to the window
"See you soon, you were fun!"

That Smile

It'd been a while since I saw you
Light up like a million lights, brighter too


But when you started buzzing
Did you notice how you made my heart sing?


Do you realize, all it takes is one strike
To cause a flame that illuminates a heart, so bright


Do you learn the power you possess
A simple curve, and there goes everyone's stress


Stay this way, entwined with zest, tight as a braid
Don't you ever let the bright in your aura fade


Exuberant, may you, forever be
Buoyant, even in a storm-filled sea

Don't Burn Yourself

He: I see a spark
She: It's only a prelude...
He: I like what I see. I love what I don't...yet...
She: It isn't all rosy, the fire. Often, it consumes the one who contains it. And anyone who comes any close, gets burnt too...

You're Being Watched

While those beautiful pair of eyes gaze
Into a universe of another pair
Your beautiful pair of marbles
Traverse across the frame, where they stop and stare


Have you ever reflected, my dear
On the possibility
Of another pair, locked onto you?
And then some more, until eternity?


While you notice, notice you, that you are being noticed?
By a few physical pairs...
And by another handful of metaphysical,
Do you sense them transfixed on you?

Not Enough

Baited breath, fiery eyes
There's a storm building up inside
You draw closer, with a look so calm
How do you conceal what I cannot hide?


Piercing my heart, bit by bit
Each second killing me inside
Do you know how you untame my mind?
How seamlessly you control the tide?


Effortless, it's how you handle what you've caused
Satiating this urge so dire
Even with a warmth, so comforting, I lose my mind
You don't merely kindle a flame, you come and set this heart afire


Stop now, I cannot breathe
Stop not, don't quell this riot within me
Pull me out of this blur I'm drowning in
While I surface in epiphany


Have you any clue, love, how you enchant?
The first one hasn't extinguished, yet already, there's more fire
Swelling my heart with a joy like no other
Causing it to weave a new net of desire

To Skippy

That twinkle in your eye
That soft coat of sky on you
Li'l baby, the moment I saw you
I knew I'd love you


You made me so happy
Even when you were being a brat
When you slept so calm in my lap
When you went berserk chasing a make-believe rat


I wish I could serve you
Pamper you, protect you forever
But here I learn I'm only being unfair to you
If I keep you through life, abandon you through the day with loneliness to suffer


You'll find a new place to go
You'll find a new heart to own
But just how much you mean to me
Will that, to you, ever be known?


My dear, li'l one, I hope you know
It's not just your being, it's your soul that's a fountain of beauty
You came into this home with bubbling joy
You left, you took along a huge part of me...

If Only...

Of every rise, they say,
Beware, for it precedes a fall
But this one hit came
Without any premonition at all


The eagle was strong, majestic
He had mastered the sky
Many a dip, but he soared again
For he knew how to fly


No thunder, no storm
Could stop his flight
For he had the knack
To give the forces of nature, a tough fight


But then came a prey
So easy, a fling
A bait of fate
That clipped his wing


If only somehow
Those feathers regrew
He'd take a flight
In a direction anew

Going (Away) With The Flow

Late night.
Eyes meet.
Lips part.
Blur.


Racing hearts.
Running late.
Fetches rickshaw.
GTG.


Disappointment noticed.
Helpless feeling.
Que sera...
Sera.

Clueless

You're warmer than summer
More comfort than a couch
A friend who always uplifts friends
Around you, it's hard to slouch


You always light everyone up
But hush the dark within
Cause sweet melodies around
While thunderstorms are sinking you in


Your words are often spiced, some sing, some sting
As effortless to you, they are, as to a wolf his howl
But who know you well, are well aware
The intent is good, you mean no foul


You swim in narcissism
But are quick to dismiss a compliment
Yet, your genuine praise for another
Never does it go unspent


Deny it, but deep down, even you know
Just to mean good, makes the good in you unfold
You're beautiful, within and without
A pure soul, married to a heart of gold


Sure, you dwell in imperfections
No human is crystal, without a scar
But despite the shortcomings, I wish you saw
Just what a wonder you are!

Feels Like Home

Seated, flipping through stories
Some cause a grin, but you're not pulled into any
A yawn, a stretch, and your eyes meet mine
The curving of your lips; butterflies inside me, so many


Sinful grin. Dark eyes.
A hungry soul, you know why
A beckon in pantomime, and I follow command
This moment. Such a high!


Magnetic gaze. Distances distanced.
Arms around close the bait
Pursed lips, not a word spoken
But love begins to communicate


Emotions rise, a tear falls
A thumb to the cheek, foreheads meet
A kiss on the temple, the warmest hug
A moment, forever, could anything be this sweet?

Naked Tree

Under the naked tree
They saw each other drenched in silver moonlight
Revelling in a mad dance of love
Echoing moans through the night


Two lost souls
Had found one another
To lose themselves
To each other


They'd found their spot
Where not a being would intervene
So there, they reunited, each night
Sparking a silent fire, in this place so serene


Under the naked tree
Revelling in eachother's sight
Began a mad dance of love
Echoing moans through the night


Tides rose, and winds spooked passers-by
As from him, sweet kisses, she stole
A soul, free from the binds of its corpse
Had just found another, to make her a whole

Love Missed

The clouds turned intense
Trying to mirror the look on his face
In an attempt to ease him, she made him a paper boat
Tried to rub her enthusiasm on him, she intervened, "let's race!"


He grunted, rolled his eyes, got up and walked away
Hit by failure, she retorted to her little shell
His emotions had rubbed off on her and stayed, but he had left
There, she mirrored the weather, as the rain fell


Years passed by, much in the same fashion
Her love for her hero pushed her to try again
She had to bring back the sunshine she saw in stills
A million more attempts, but all in vain


Hopelessly hopeful, she tried again
For a quarter century, but then, hope lost hope
Now he's all salt, no pepper,
His eager eyes search for his li'l sunshine with hope


But today, the sun shines in another land
And she doesn't even know
That daddy would see her love
Eventually, he'd know

Fierce

Your gaze, it's enigmatic
Hapless and spellbound it has left me
Your smile, it's infectious
A need so carnal it has evoked in me


Thunderstorms are messing my head
Earthquakes disorienting my heart
Lightening hits, gushing through my being
You've hit me hard with a dart


Your touch...so warm
It's driving away the sane in me
Setting free the beast within
Your fiery eyes, too, are untaming me


Now this want so fierce
I'm unable to contain
You're making my thoughts
Such that I cannot tame


To an insatiable want
I'm falling prey
Come feed my fire
Now don't leave me astray


Don't flow in and entice
Only to ebb away
Step on the shore
Only if you choose to stay


Don't spark a flame
Without an intent to cause fire
Don't tease me like that
And play with desire


Don't you see, beloved,
The wild storm that you're building up?
I won't question, if you can handle
The ferocity without giving up

Make Up

Hush now, don't say a word
For over a thousand seconds has rage dominated
Let another storm, now take over
Feed into the spark you've initiated


The heaving of your chest
The rush in your veins
The enigmatic gaze
Has had me in chains


Come now, we've fouled enough
Let me soothe your pain
Let me undo the wrong, treat you right,
Let hate stand defeated, let love reign


Let's quit, this war of words,
As actions echo louder
Let's drown, swoon and writhe in love instead
Let us not evade the thunder

The Story

Each time your gaze met mine
You kindled a fire, stronger
Each moment you stayed around
Unsated I remained, wishing for you to stay longer


To burn the flutters alive, I tried
But unbridled and savage they remain
Fluttering, they lit every bit of me
Dancing in victory, they drove me insane


Hapless, I fell, surrendered to their command
But little did I know,
They'd burn me inside out; now I know
You reap what you sow


So karma did boomerang
I let it conspire my fall
But in this calm after the storm
Love, somehow, still stands tall

Dear Friend

A Sunday post-noon,
An acoustic celebration
High spirited, chirpiness, for company
Beautiful preparations, a spread of perfection
An exchange of words
Many a giggle, and then some more
Sharing stories
Making memories galore
That graceful smile
That talk of experience
That gleam in those eyes
That conviction and confidence
It was all packaged
Into one beautiful afternoon
I was delighted to see you after long
Now hoping to see you soon! :)

Voices in her head

A: Don't, it'll hurt you!
B: But, explore, I want to...
A: What if, it breaks you?
B: Let it, if it kills me too!
A: The safer route, can't you tread?
B: Safe is boring, a wise soul once said.
A: No, it spells danger ahead.
B: If fate so wishes, go now, make my bed.
A: Fine, have it your way!
B: I will now, you'll have no say!
A: Guard yourself, let emotions be at bay.
B: But experience is rich, no other way.
A: Now, there you are, broken and blue...
B: And aren't you broken too?
A: I heard the toll, this was a call for death...
B: But hey, I'm stronger. I'm not dead yet.

Escaping the Void

It intrigues, it astounds
To see how fate makes you dance
All shall come, only to go...be born, only to die
Of this spate, we know, yet, take a chance


How it brings souls vis-à-vis
A purpose, though, then, unknown
And disconnected, they be
On solving the purpose alone


Oblivious, we aren't, to this truth
A soul shall go, another shall come
And yet, some souls leave a void
Where wounds can't be undone, but must  be overcome

The Plea

This heart, it has yearned for your sound
To match its rhythm, and dance
This mind is losing ground
For it wants, again, to lose in that trance


These arms, a new felt warmth, they've found
These lips, a pair to paint love on
This soul, another, to revel in love with,
From dusk to dawn


Stay here, won't you stay a little longer?
Each time, as I get a little taste of you,
The thirst, it gets a little stronger
Stay here, wrapped in my arms
Stay near, let me live in your warmth
Just a little longer...until I'm stronger...


Another couple ticks on the clock
And a ride to lead you home
And the mundane life shall take over
While we engage with a million, we'll be alone


Know that while a million little thoughts
Fill my head, some come and some go
There's the thought of you, that'll occupy
A permanent seat and ride solo


And though, on my own, I'll be just fine
Content in my own company
You will occupy my mind
I'll be swinging to your symphony


Stay here, won't you stay a little longer?
Each time, as I get a little taste of you,
The thirst, it gets a little stronger
Stay here, wrapped in my arms
Stay near, let me live in your warmth
Just a little longer...until I'm stronger...

High at Dawn

Out there, frost melts under the spell of the sun
In here, you've cast a similar incantation
With your beautifully picked words
Weaved more tastefully into narration


And as dawn takes over from the night
An insatiable want, for more, surfaces from somewhere inside
I draw a kiss, and then, some more
Give into impulse, it's a thing I cannot hide


A slow, synchronized dance of two souls
Meshing entrancingly, moulding into a whole
And then, again, I lose my powers to you
Controlled by you, each time you cajole

Diving In

The cold, damp wave breaks my peace
Fingers rummage through layers of woven sheets
No trace of you, coerces my lids to open
Neither a note left behind, nor a word spoken


Wrapped in mink, belted with arms so numb
Barely able to step, but to my thirst, I succumb
I trace you, seated by the pane, on moist mahogany,
Soaking into the beauty of dawn


A sigh tells me I'm home again
At peace, to have you near
An about-face and I have your attention
Your bass voice...echoes loud and clear


I lose guard, give in to instinct
Taking a part of you, sharing more
As I let your hands paint a million emotions
On my canvas...from bare to sore

Strange Kind of Love

The kind you know too well
The kind you find hard to read
The kind who's a lot like you
And still...not at all!


He's that strange kind of love
To whom you'd want to be right
But with whom, all wrong
He's that crazy kind of love
You think it's just going to last a while
But it haunts you nearly lifelong


He's the pain behind your smiles
The joy in your tears
As much, the kind you adore
As much as the kind you'd ignore


The kind you'd want so bad
But never make your own
The kind that can break apart
The truce between head and heart


He's that strange kind of love
To whom you'd want to be right
But with whom, all wrong
He's that crazy kind of love
You think it's just going to last a while
But it haunts you nearly lifelong

Symphony

A glimpse of you, I catch
And begins a resonation
Of that tingling melody
The fluttering, the sensation


I try to keep my cool
Save my gaze, from being caught by a dancing eye
I surrender to the urge, but in peripheral view,
In this admiration, I revel on the sly


I find my place, fit in
As the night unfurls, so do souls around
Through the frolic and laughter, the light banter
I rummage, to hear a sound


And there, your lips, they part to allow
A flow of that beautiful voice
That's moulded into carefully chosen words that I missed
For I was lost, I had no choice

Mimosa

Like a painting that narrates
Without saying a word
Your eyes express bountiful emotions
Of which, none from you, have I heard


Let down your guard
With every revelation
You take a chance
Let go of all protection


And as you stand uncovered
Bold, against a savage thunderstorm
I wish I could be the blanket
To help you keep warm


But maybe, safe distance, is safe
For I lack the power to aid
Perhaps, you're meant to brave this alone
But, should you embrace your core, you'll soon lead the parade

Unreadable

Look into my eyes
When I look at you
Do you see darkness?
Do you see me too?

Do you see the void
That I try to fill?
Through little exchanges
Killing silent moments that kill

Look into my eyes
Try to read more than you see
You may learn a thing or two
But can you, really, know me?

Do you see a soul
Who is as lost as you?
Do you see a friend?
Do you see an enemy too?

Yet Again

All eyes have laid to rest until tomorrow dawns
The night has cast her spell
And while every soul has gone into their bunk
Those buried thoughts, they emerge from their shell


Like many a night, again, seated by the window
I think of you...revisiting...revelling
Each moment festered a spark in my heart
Each day, it grew stronger, this feeling


I know the truth, love bites
It takes every bit of you
But a love like this is to die for
For I know more...love heals too


The littlest of their joys, they amplify yours
The smallest of fears, evaporate
Our vision turns rose-tinted
The world around, seems less filled with hate


That love, the kind that elevates
Where the lover wants to serve love better
Each day, more than yesterday
Nurture her love, brighter, stronger


It's that undying, pure, love
That injects tints and hues into a dying grey
Oh, I would die to live each day
That kind of love, that I live today

Drink With Me

A cold wave fills the air outside
Little flakes, they start to fall
But warmer, it gets, with each stride
As I approach, where you stand tall

You exude the warmth of mulled wine
Beckoning me, my green muse
A testimony of my tastes, so fine
My precious one, never want to lose

Wont you drink with me?
Oh, I will fill your glass to the brim
Cold cubes of sorrow, melted will be
Intoxicated, in love we'll swim
Undo the cork, take a shot
Let love flow unhesitatingly
As we revel in this moment, forget not
Miseries do get overshadowed by glee

Oh, now I cannot stay sober
The more I get, the more I want you
Like a drunkard, is a lover
Who tries to control, but the want consumes control too

Spinning as I stand, a sip of you as I take
I'm sinking in, bound by your spell
To my heart of glass, the love your lips make
The warmth is comforting you, too, I can tell

Oh, as you drink with me
I fill your glass to the brim
Cold cubes of sorrow, melted be
Intoxicated in love, we swim
Undone the cork, taken a shot
When love flows unhesitatingly
We revel in this moment, we stop not
As miseries get overshadowed by glee

Live that Love

It's fascinating, how you can live in moments
And live them fully, wholly until they're gone
From them, the hard way, you learn
Nothing lasts forever, but it's where you're wrong


You feel love, drown in it's beauty
But pain hits you harder, deeper
You fail to see, the wound's momentary
Always, it's love that's stronger, for it lasts longer


May you find that kind of love, where
More often, the sun shine on you
May your lips always live that curve
And you keep gleaming too!


May you learn to live a love
One that's yours, yours to stay
Not learn love through mere utterances
But experience teach you, if it may


And may it paint you with the world's joys
Even on a cold, dark night, warm, your heart be
May your heart blossom in these rays, each day
Forever, this paradise be,yours to live in, yours to see...

Left Wanting

The first of the waking hours
When in my own company, I sit
Often, slipping into a silent zone, where I'm hit
By a whiff of you...sometimes, only the slightest bit


A rush of emotions, so strong
Fountains from the deepest part of me
Rising above, swirling within and without
Encircling me, drowning me, breaking me


I give in, drenching my lashes
Bit by bit, tearing my shield apart
Wanting to hush my mind
Wanting to listen to my heart


A trickling emptiness leaves me helpless
In quest for that embrace, so pure
That I once experienced, even if, only for a moment,
For long, lingered a feeling, that made me secure

The Night

The soft cushion of silver sand
Cannot be more comforting than the warmth of your hand
Lit up with twinkling lights, this sky, deeper than blue
And my heart, it shines so bright, when I'm here, by you


You're far, somewhere, lost in narration
I want to listen intently, but I fail to pay attention
For I'm taken over by an urge, so strong
To love you, to serve you, life long


Let my lips paint your skin with love
Let them be witness, the stars above
As the waves mesh into the sand, this silent night
Let me show you love, let me hold you tight

A whiff of You

Ever so often, when the skies
Get deeper, darker than blue
I stare out of the window,
Up, at the moon, thinking about you


I lose myself in flashes, of the many moments
Each hold a place in my heart
The times you chuckled, the times you smiled...
Those times...cupid hit me with a dart


When olfaction interrupts this virtual movie
I close my eyes and surrender to your fragrance
The only bit of you that stays with me
The bit that covers up for the painful distance...

The Soirée

Sparkling lights, glimmering skies
A wave of chitter-chatter fills the air
The finest of men, the drop dead gorgeous women
Fill this space, but it feels empty without you there


Brief exchanges with bodies around
No acquaintance with the soul
Revelling in this spirit, only because I'm here 
But feeling the surface is not feeling the whole


I fake a smile and with forced gleam in my eyes,
Put my mask on and revel too
While I seem to be content in their company
My heart, desperately, looks for you


Enter you, dripping in charm
Wooing beauties with your little quips
And then some more...it doesn't take long
For you to leave the crowd spellbound


Not a word of exchange between us
Oblivious to my presence, you're in your own zone
While you sip on some Baileys, looking into her eyes
I'm the one who cannot hold her own


I fall again, into a space of bliss
Everything starts to slow down
The sweet symphony, it resumes,
Causing headrush, when you're around


Writhing in joy, pounding harder
A song, my heart begins to sing
You're the one smiling, out there
And here, sparks a fountain of joy within

Chapter Three

The world spins, it keeps spinning
It reaches my head, when I think of you
And time ticks, it keeps ticking
But it comes to a halt, when I'm with you


A fountain of joy, I revel in
When I am around you
But why do I sink into an ocean of pain
When unfolds, the thought of wanting you


I've entered a new phase, discovering revelations
Acquaintances with thoughts that aren't new
But each time they came afloat
They were always hushed, subdued


Why now, do they float about
Teasing me, hauntingly, following me around
Raising another army of storms
Provoking me to make a sound


And I hush again, but often in vain
For ever so often, it spills out
The more I try to hide, the more it shows
It must strut and shine, within and without


And now I risk looking silly
Never did I think I would
Make small talk to grab attention
Even subconsciously, I thought not, I could


The exchange of bundles of words
To me was worthless chitter chatter
But with you, I dig into every little exchange
Even if it's merely banter


You say I'm wound too tight, perhaps, I am
And it appals me just as much
For what never held as much weight
Is being powdered to study, such

Hate kills. Kill hate!

It's disheartening how we fail to learn
These are mere expressions on a slate
That push us to take offense
They wilt emotions, they make you hate

Why do you, tainted soul, talk of God
As one who calls for annihilation of His own creation?
Why would He intend ruination of His own fruition?
No, this could not be His proposition!

It's astounding to learn that brothers
Who are, in work, in play, in joys and more
In prayer, will willingly turn foes
And will detest one another to the core

No, I know not of religion
But I know of love and hate
All come to this world, filled with innocent love
Most, leave because of hate 

Now tell me, my friend, what did you win?
Does your hatred, too, rest in peace?
Did you find love? Did you get rewarded?
Did you? Are you at ease? 

The Girl in the Mirror

A battle in itself, it is
When you're born this way
A fight with a girl I see
In the mirror everyday


You can't tame what's savage
From the core, she says
She fails to see, a girl like that
Has no place here, no reason to stay


To please someone I call my own
Each day, I kill a little bit of my own
They taught me to be a fighter
Only to learn to fight myself




Hush now, don't speak this way
Don't wrap yourself in that
Stay this way, conduct yourself so
Wait, don't breathe. Suffocate!




Wrap yourself in cling film
Look perfect, be perfect
It's only this path
That will lure your Mr. Perfect




May I? She barges in
You're getting conditioned into believing crap
Don't learn from them
Perfection itself is a trap




I want to follow, learn from this beauty,
Be true to my true lover
And someday, I shall be more like her,
Like that girl in the mirror

You

Times, when you raise your brow, indulge in thought
When you part your lips to speak
That little rogue festers another arrow
Pulsations grow stronger, one turns meek


When your lips curve into a smile
Do you see? It's infectious
Those moments of genuine, oozing joy
The beauty in such times, it's precious

Do you learn? You have a way to keep a person
Wrapped around your finger
Perhaps, it's not purposeful
Perhaps, it's just a force within you


It leaves one helpless, floating about
In an ocean of joy and pain
Causing a million storms within
Some, enthralling...some, to make one insane...
