freezes me
leaves me hot under
my collar
she looks at me with
a stare icy hot
Whose fault
you inspire
me to inspire you
what should I
infer if you still
do not get inspired
The moments
the moments
before we touch them
are pristine
we sully them by
holding on to them
City in the sky
city in the sky
I wanted to build for her
she seemed excited
turned out that I was only
building castles in the air
Don’t tell me it’s fate
you chose to break up
for your own selfish reasons
don’t tell me it’s fate
remember how you told me
fate has bound us for ever
The page that mattered
like a book she could
read him with an utmost ease
he loved being read
she skimmed through but deftly skipped
the page where the heart speaks words
For keeps
had to convince her
he looked into her eyes, deep
he lied truthfully
trust me, my love is for keeps
then he rolled and fell asleep
Hippopotamus expectations
hippopotamus
expectations from her were
conceived right after
the whale of time he spent in
her company at the zoo
Letting it go
as she walked to
the end of the wooden boards,
the stars spoke to her
don’t follow your father’s steps
he regrets walking out on you
Memories
she dressed, then wept as
the music faded away
it was painful to
remember the night he left
her at the altar
