Saving him.

“I’ll save you”, he said,
And she believed him.
Only she didn’t know that,
All along,
She had been the one
Saving him.

Existence.

She was the centre of her universe
The sun of his solar system
The water to his fire
The satisfaction to his desire
He was the light of her eyes
The words of her sigh
The backbone of her conviction
The sole reason for her existence
And they were meant to be together,
Meant to be “One”
They were meant to walk the roads
Of trust,
They drank the ocean of love and lust.

This song.

In the darkness of his eyes,
She was his only light.
The ruler of his heart,
His mind, his sight.

In the depth of his fears,
She was his saving grace.
She had sealed his lips,
And consumed his face.

Never had he thought
That something could be this strong.
His breath, his step, all belonged to her
As she loved him through this song.

Incomplete Dreams.

So loud was his cry
That the walls shook
How much he pleaded
For you to let him off the hook.

You gave him cold stares
Hit him with your crude remarks
But did you ever think
How a little fish would feel in an ocean full of sharks?

He roams around
And wanders aimlessly
Tries his best to let it all go,
He tries relentlessly.

He wants to share his grief
His loss, his hollow dreams,
He wants you to be a part of
His incomplete dreams.

Wordlessly.

The marks on his forehead
Spoke of thinking too hard
Being ignored too much
And thrown away like a used card.

The hollow space beneath his eyes
Spoke of unending tears
A fading ray of hope
And all his unspoken fears.

The scars on his wrist
Spoke of a dim future
A dark past, a blur present
And a life, which was never nurtured.

She knew.

She knew that
He’ll have to go
She knew that
He’ll have to leave
She knew that
He’ll have to move on.
But what she didn’t know was
That he’ll stay,
With her, for her, in her.
She didn’t know.
But he plans to stay,
Forever.

Forever Part 2.

She turned around slowly, raising her shy eyes to meet his glowing ones. Deep, heavy breaths.
Slowly with her finger, she traced the outline of his hair, the slope of his nose, the curve of smile, the shape of his chin, the freckles on his cheeks.
And she froze, as he lightly unbuttoned her blouse.

Forever Part 1.

And he came behind her, breathing in the scent of her innocence, touching her neck like it was fragile. Time stood still as his fingers took away her nervousness, her reluctancy.
She moulded herself in his arms, so strong, so warm, giving her the security she never felt.
They fit like two pieces of a puzzle, so right, so true, so perfect. And that’s when they realized, they were meant to be. Meant to be together. Forever. Always.

Him and Her.

He loved the way
Her eyes shone in
The moonlight

And how her
Hair danced in
The sunlight

And how her smile
Formed dimples

And when she speaks,
her nose crinkles

How he loved every
Little, tiny thing about her,
How he liked her,
Needed her,
Loved her.

He’s Not You.

He looks at me like I’m his universe, like I’m all he needs to survive. He talks to me like its my voice he wants to hear, like it’s me he wants to talk to.
He smiles at me as if I’m his personal fantasy, his own pandemonium. He treats me like a queen, like a part of his dreams.
And this is all a girl could ask for, but there’s only one problem. He’s not you.
