I cant swallow
no more.
This gulp of air
struck there.
My throat,
suddenly sore.
This arrest deep inside
the bosom,
An escalating fear,
within, this ever
widening chasm.
It's dreadful,
It's choking,
Just if I could be
for once,reckless,
in loving.
I cant bring myself
to say it,
Much as I try
bit by bit.
To word all
I feel.
that I cant ,alone,
no more deal.
The moment slid past,
you are gone.
They come now to me,
torrentially.
every now and then,
they come upon.
Swiftly ,stealthily.
This build up
inside my head.
Throbbing,sobbing
till I feel like dead.
Momentarily
its washed away.
And ,for now,
guess I am okay.
For now I can
swim ashore
but I cant swallow
no more.
Very very romantic. Lucky is the person
ReplyDeleteNice One :)
ReplyDeletelovely.. do u have a fixed reader for this poem?? I hope you do, and if u dont, I wish you have one :-)
ReplyDelete@ Rajeev n Rekha: Txs:)
ReplyDelete@ Bhaiyya: Txs but are u wishing unrequited love for me? I m only exploring unfamiliar emotions as yet.A figment of imgaination.And may it be there forever.
Just in response::
ReplyDeleteneed not be unrequited... read on.. Ignore the fact that this is your bhaiyya writing this.. ignore the context of u and me here.. I am writing this just in some imaginary context..
*** I love you ***
Oh. Silently I stood in front of you!
looking at those two beautiful eyes.
Million words spoken by your eyes..
None came through in clear voice.
I know that I choked ..
I know I shudnt have...
I know my throat dried..
I know my heart cried...
I know million words filled with emotions
were pushing itself up my throat.
Like the mighty waves trying to set itself free.
My lips sealed with numbness, what the heck was wrong with me?
I noticed a couple of tremors in your lips..
I wished u spoke something..
even if that something was to say you hate me.
that would have meant a lot to me.
for it would have given a good reason for me
to silently walk past you...
It was probably just my body that was gone
My heart soul and mind still revolves around you.
I know I should make the first move,
as i imagine its more difficult for you..
I am more composed now,
Your absence is not in my options.
Something tells me that you love me too.
The waves of my emotions will come to you..
I hope they will wet your feet.
I hope they wont go back into the ocean.
I hope you will come with me...
For, I know not a reason to live without you.
For, I know nor a definition of love without you..
I love you!!

ReplyDeleteoh! this is beautiful:)
ReplyDeletei was toying with the idea of writing a sequel to my post and write from the other's point of u...but u did and wonderfully so....
:-).. I thought that my wish comes true for you and that it shdnt go unrequited. there could be many reasons for which the walk away happened. probably we can write a sequel on each of those reasons. but i thought this one best suits the romanticism and the tone in which u wrote:-) God bless u
ReplyDeleteNothing more to add.. the above comments convey what I wanted to say, Vasu's comments complete that I think.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to say... :-) ..just wondering !!!
