The ‘You owe me’ list does not contain,

the hundreds of things you didn’t maintain.

You came as promised with desire weakening your fear,
Checking if someone was behind, from the world you held dear.
 

Today you walked in with the moon rising,

Set behind your face glowing.

You, a total stranger, as if seeing you for the first time,

Epitome of love, the most valued of my secret being.

Frozen nervously in the moments smiled,
As I talked, I weaned, but my mind remained fixed.

 

Leafless trees and dusty paths baking in the March Sun,

Came the unwarned Cloud and covered them all.

Sun gave in and surrendered his might,

Mellowing the Sun, the Cloud smiled.

Life I know is unsure, fluid, and hot,
Hence, I’d decide to keep my mouth shut.

 

The scent of earth when touched by the first drop,
The pain it causes when they sum up.
The smell of a baby and the gigglewhich follows,
The silence of ecstasy and the noise of loss.
