Fading Away...

I sit in the silence of my own crowded self,
And listen to the symphony of my heart,
Hear it sing its own sad tale,
Love, it says, it's time to depart,
Come listen to me, listen to my soul,
Among the beautiful notes, and carrying highs,
I wish you could listen, just that much close,
For then, you'll hear, my lone heart's sighs,
But that is the beauty, and it shall hide hence,
Shrouded within the flowers, I take refuge, mine,
Come, here I lie, open, bare,
Among the glittering dew drops, my tears shine,
But there has been time, when I have lived,
Floating in your arms, dying in your embrace,
Such delightfully surprising, this magical rebirth,
And mesmerizing love, on your face,
Remember I still do, thy sigh, thy smile,
My love, nothing of you can I forget,
This wind speaks of you, sky rain your name,
I yearn to live again, the day we met,
It feels so hard, it's time to go,
And perhaps never again, shall I see you,
But I have faith, may not others know,
'tis you, who feels, that, which is true

Come...

Jeer at me, yes, tread on my self,
For I am just an age-old toy, on a dusty shelf,
For how long shall ye marre my face, like so?
There is no more, just the toss before the throw,
I close my ears, try to shut you away,
And yet again I succumb, again my feet sway,
How deeper can I go, beyond this abyss?
Someone once joked, there is a bliss...
Come trample me hard, come please yourself,
I am no human, a meager fairy elf,
So try it now, come break me in two,
For you won't ever know, that I love you...

Waiting for One

Ecstasy and joy, happiness around,
Smiles and laughter, is what, me, surround,
Yet something's amiss, I can feel it in me,
In all this love, why don't I feel free?
And then I realize, where lay the cause,
For a second, the hurt made me pause,
I step out of my house, to breathe the fresh air,
To shake it off, escape from despair,
And I hear you saying, why are you so blue?
Why not be happy, so many are waiting for you,
And I laugh silently, your belief so strong,
You know, I love it, when you always get it wrong,
So many waiting for me, and yet I so blue,
Dint you understand, I was waiting just for one, and that is you

To be with You

The warm sun, and the swift breeze, remind me of you
I cannot think back, to a time, when we used to be two,
But what should I do now, for I no longer have you,
Death took thee from me, there was nothing I could do,
Long and hard for thee, have I cried,
Always failed to get you back, whenever I tried,
For heaven would not, give you back to me,
And you and me apart, I cannot bear to see,
So here I come, love, to the plunge, and through,
For all I need, is to be with you


P.S: This poem was written back around 2001, and I have kept it the way it was originally written. Just felt nice coming across something like this in an old diary of mine, thought I'd share it with others. And yeah, I was still a kid at that time, so keep the criticisms a bit light, go easy on me :)
