Staring

Staring into the sky in the night, trying no to see the darkness but the light in the stars.
Staring at the horizon during sunset, smiling at the wonder of such a sight. A sight so beautiful.

Staring at the waves of the sea, trying not to think of the lives it has swallowed, rather the joy it brings to those who entrust it with their lives. The waves, moving soft and smoothly, break into splashes bringing onto the sandy beaches a breeze so soothing.

Staring into the rains, choosing not to see the potential in the looming storm, rather the beautiful red orange yellow rainbow that would color the skies afterwards.

Staring into her large, dark-brown eyes. My heart racing. Beating a little, but a little more, harder with every breath taken next to you. You know how when eyes talk to eyes, the whole world stands still. Time waits and nature listens.

Staring at your hour glass physique, wondering whether what I'm seeing is a mirage. Trying my level best not to be trapped by my thirst and boundless desire. Praying that the geography of your curves does not lead me into lust.

Staring at the most beautiful girl in the world. Her beauty so amazing, her heart so loving, her smile so pretty revealing a diastema, on which prince charmings would rise to war over.

Staring at her and wishing, wishing I could talk 'till the pools of purple coloured the skies, a flood with gold and rose. But now that I'm running out of things to say, I shall end with the most common line since the conception of love, "I LOVE YOU."

Why Her Not Me?

Slowly I learn. I'm learning that being kind to myself is not being selfish. I'm learning that my body, my body is mine, and is not to be compared to any other. Slowly I learn that if you ever want to fall in love, you fall not for words, but for actions. You fall for the way their presence makes you warm, not the way their compliments make you blush. Fall like petals, ever so slowly and with all of your grace, not too hard into a place still unknown. If I had a thousand lives, I'd learn all the languages. But I only have one, so I will take pain to master the language that will bring us together, closer than ever, till the beginning of forever. I thought love was portrayed wrong in the movies, because how could something that beautiful be so effortless. I  thought it was supposed to be hard. That it meant I had to heal somebody for them to be able to love me. You showed me how wrong I could be. Now as I reflect on the taste of your lips, I know I let true love slip through...

Trial and Error

  "Confused by your words and tempted by desire, I let you steal my heart. Then you tore it in two. While others saw it as lust and impulse, I, for a moment, thought ours would be a symbol of never letting go. The ache in my soul ripped at my gut. I burnt from within. My skin was on fire. Loneliness consumed me. I built a wall so high to keep the world out. The calm on my face was an ongoing sin. Hiding the pain. Hiding the hurt." His sheets were a shade of red. Her body lay motionless by his side. So peaceful and serene. Himself, head in hands. Eyes flooded with tears. He definitely felt like a bad person. Playing two hearts but also playing with his own. It felt like one was forever and the other for the moment. But the moment felt right. What if, the moment is not only for the moment, and it's forever too? 

Between Dreams & Reality

Sometimes, the most precious things in the world are meant to fly free. They are yours for only a moment before they slip away, leaving you with a haunting sense of what-ifs. I’ve been in relationships before, but this time was different. This time, I was truly happy. She was like the scent of freshly brewed coffee in the morning. Falling for her felt like summer rain—at first, a light drizzle, then a hurricane; with thunder and lightning, intense and fast, meant to dishevel, but never to last. I still remember the first time we spoke. There was an immediate connection, like an invisible thread tying us together, something strong and unbreakable. When I say unbreakable, I mean that no matter how hard we tried to distance ourselves or un-feel what was between us, the invisible string kept pulling us back together. This was different from any relationship I had before. It made me reflect deeply and left me wondering. If she had stayed, maybe I could have loosened the threads enough t...
