I love your loneliness
Because it makes me want you more;
To fill the void in your core.
Your tired gaze on trees outside
Leaves my soul twist and crave
My eyes are full but heart bereft.
But then our eyes just rendezvous.
One careless impetuous look
And I'm feeling human again.
Even when books and boards are all I have to see
I'll find little excuses to slip my gaze where it should be.
But then I'm scared 'cause
Even eyes can transgress
And it shouldn't be the reason
You feel distressed.
So the deer hides
For the tiger that never growled.
You know my friend, who talks too much?
She says she has a crush
But she needs a distraction
Wants to get over him if possible
So much love and feelings that go to waste
Everyday in this cold lonely place.
My antidepressants are running out
I must ask you
Hey, do you come in bottles?
I'm just a dot with no beginning, no end
In your life, I'm just an existence.
And your friends will never spare you some company
Just lemme know, I'm just two benches away.
Words are incapable to express what you are
In your eyes, thousand worlds resides; constant changes
Like seasons with different terrains
And I'm but a traveller with wanderlust in my soul
Searching for that treasure amidst you
Sunlight trickles down your collar-bound neck
Shirt stretches over your seductive back.
Every time I raise my lips or raise my hand
For just a smile, just a hey
Internal battles rise wide awake
Tell me, love, how do you make this lonely hallway of yours so alluring
Where all doors of joy are locked?
I shake the knobs but can't get in
And yet another orange bottle pill.
In presence, I love, in separation more
In vain have gone all the struggle I bore.
The scars on my wrists have started to fade
My friend says we must talk
So while you're in the balcony
She randomly calls you up
Your walk down is the descent of the divine.
Smile so petite can relish the world
All is a part of fate's grand scheme
Does the loner know the awkward girl likes him?
Thanks to my amazing friends Ruayera ananti19 navya_2601 for always supporting me and my work. Xx
