love & doubts
Unremarkable at times,
That's what I thought of you.
To me you were everything I was against,
My antithesis,
The light to the ever expanding darkness within me.
I have learnt that sometimes it's foolishness to dream of touching the stars,
Yet it's this folly that drives me,
Compels me to be with you.
You are the last person I see when my eyes,
Tired, closes,
Like the windows of a battered, broken down house.
You are in my very dreams,
Dreams so vivid, yet never true.
I am like a moth,
Enthralled with the resplendent beauty of light,
Death is the price it pays.

What drives us apart from each other?
My heart aches everytime i think of how unattainable you are...
Is it our differences?
This Gulf between us, ever expanding,
There are times when I just want to walk away...
But, this heart of mine,
The only remaining morsel of humanity within me still turns to you;
It's true that it's insanity to ever dream of touching the stars,
Yet, this star... You,
You are who I seek.
In your absence, I feel the cold fingers of loneliness, slowly touching my heart,
I hear the silence, and I'm afraid,
You are the remedy.

I am driven mad by you,
My mind rages, my heart burns with passion,
Every day is a circle,
I fear that like everyone else before you,
You have rejected me,
I fear that I have bored you,
Becoming bland,
My talks lack excitement,
Maybe that's why you spurn me;
I've told myself that this is my last attempt,
My fingers are numb,
My heart, the embodiment of the passion, the desire I have for you, is slowly fading into nothingness.

My mind has fantasized, my eyes has admired you,
Yet, here I am, unsatisfied,
I am like Pluto, far away and slowly revolving around you,
Never too close, always a distance apart.
Allow me to hope,
Allow me to believe, to believe that I have a place in your heart,
That maybe you'll open your heart and finally fill this cold heart of mine with your love.
You'll let my arms, itching to be around you, finally have its wish,
And here I vow never to break your heart,
Never to hold anyone else in my heart.
