If only you could feel what I felt,
If only you could hear what I said
under my breath. A whisper.
These days, they just fly by
but the nights are long, daunting, weary,
every minute hauls itself,
fighting to make it to the dawn.
You make me feel helpless
like a rose in desert waiting to be saved.
My thoughts are hollow,
my mind gets dysfunctional,
my heartbeat loses its rhythm
when you walk past me.
Needless to say, you affect me
more than anyone could.
Like I am no more in possession
of my own soul. Not fair.
You take over my senses,
You make me weak from head to heel
whenever you are around.
Like a spell sprinkled in the air.
If only I could find some means
to let this feeling out, forsake it
let it dissolve into nothingness.
But every time I close my eyes,
I feel you. I dream of you.
Like your arms wrapped around me,
I could feel your breath on my neck.
It makes me feel safe. Protected.
Like a pearl guarded in its shell.
Like a memory replicated in a diary.
If only, we were close
If only, we were best friends,
you would have read my mind,
set straight the puzzled thoughts.
Because lately, I have caught myself
smiling gleefully in the mirror,
counting stars in the night sky,
humming tunes in my sleep.
What is this feeling so strong?
that every time I see your face,
hear your deep voice,
I get carried away, I lose sanity,
I'm numb. Is this feeling Love?
A Curse or a Cure?
