And there! All at once,
Blue became...
My favourite hue.
For during the times when I felt blue,
It gave me light,
It gave me you!

Pipe Dream
The world never ceases to disappoint her,
The inevitable hurt, carefully cloaked in the radiant fiction.
Being a constant spiral recur...
Striking her hopeful heart with a cyclic affliction.
As deceiving as humanity's grand scheme can be!
She masks with laughter like a feigned advertising campaign.
Knowing that elation is just a pipe dream,
Yet there she is, ready...
Ready to be fooled again!

Blissful Polarity
You are my only bliss in the face of pathos,
My only clarity in this white noise,
And my only calm in this chaos!

Predestination
Falling in love wasn't pre-decided,
But sure, for us it was predestined.
It wasn't scrupulously planned,
Yet love nuzzled us unplanned!

Light and Dust
Oh, I wish you knew what you are!
The one true north in the cluster of stars.
Like the clear, luminous moon that stands alone,
Holding darkness within, still illumined for the world.
The countless stars can never emulate their unparalleled allure,
Shining on their own, yet composed of dust at the core.

The Contrite
There are times when I do not realize,
How my unintentional actions can hurt and agonize!
When I am finally able to comprehend it later,
You had already been emotionally marred and battered.
My blunders and guilt, leave me chagrined,
Making me utterly empty from within.
I say my sorries, with all my heart,
Even though I know it’s late, as I have already torn you apart.
There are things that I say and things that I don’t,
A beautiful person like you can never have another clone.
I sincerely apologize with a heavy heart and a sense of misgiving,
I shudder at the thought, what if my gaffes become our undoing!
There are times when I do not realize,
How my unintentional actions can hurt and agonize!
But, as I said, they are completely unintentional,
Seeing you happy is the only thing indispensable.

That Bewitching Feeling
He gives me a look that is beyond cute,
Those beautiful eyes exuding love, absolute!
I pined for him all day with all extravagance,
Albeit, I know he missed me more, in superabundance.
I reach out for that impending kiss and embrace,
Wagging his tail, he leaps instantaneously and licks my face.

Homecoming
I am at times unintentionally irrational and exasperating,
That is certainly not an excuse,
For the transient sentimental bruise,
But that's the downside of being a human,
We are slaves to our emotions,
Vexed or unvexed, I wear my heart on my sleeve,
You are my home, and homecoming is what I invariably do unhesitating!
