" I dare you to ask me,
  What is a lover's charm?
  I heard it's sweeter than honey,
  Steeper than any hill,
  Softer than the highest clouds,
  Longer than your thoughts,
  Wider than the sky,
  Smoother than any pavement,

Do you know the tricks of a lover?
It might look all misty and steamy,
But it's filled with lies, deceit and betrayal,
You won't see it,
You're in a trance
A feeling of pleasure, love and what not,
You'll never see his/her lies,
The inches of hesitation increasing each day,

You won't see it yet,
You won't notice the fake smiles,
Rotten charms and averted gazes,
All you'll see is constant affection and rancid  apologies,
That'll last shorter than your own breath,
A billionaire's smile just for you,
That touch, that gentle caress,
Soothing your nerves,

How can you not see it ?
The calls becoming shorter by each day,
The excuses becoming more ironic each day,
The hesitation mocking you in the face,
Yet the smile stays at the very same place,
It makes you feel like you're on the seventh sky,
Would you dare jump down?
No you won't and why would you?

Is it a play of hide and seek?
Where you promise each other all the things and hide in the end?
If that's what you call love,
Then you're nothing but a mighty fool.
That is why I dare you to ask me,
What is a lover's charm?

                                  ✨✨

   - our view of love.

A/N: yep, it's true I, sarrs the I decided to put this shitty excuse of  a poetry book  for watty awards 2019, definitely knowing how disheartened I will be in the end and knowing how much of fool I am I just like like to embarrass myself don't I? If you genuinely read my poems you'll it yourself but yeah no one does because my poetry is nothing but a lame excuse of me trying to pour my heart out. But once I wrote something when I was going through pretty hard times that "how long will you hold your breath? One way or another you'll have to let your breath go" and this is what I'm doing letting my insecurities and my fears go for a moment but it will be worth it. If I don't get nominated then no worries I'll try again. I have this phobia of failure whatever I do I fail and fall back down but not this time. Whoever has read all of my poems till now is nothing but precious to me. You make me feel lovely 🥺🌸
Thank you ‼️
