song

oh my love, i seem to love
all that you might have to sing
but oh my favorite song of yours
is the one which your lips
would sing on mine

and those were the first words, that oh my love
i addressed to you
for oh it wasn’t really about the sky,
i gazed at everyday
but oh my love,
was the thought of,
laying under it with you
that felt oh just so beautiful to me.

oh it wasn’t my first day, of having my gaze pass by you
that i noticed the beauty to you

but oh my love, it was the day
you were in blue, with chandeliers hanging by your ear

oh how even when oh a year has passed since
i still seem to remember,
how lovely did you oh really feel, then

and oh my love, i wrote
oh i wrote all that oh you made me feel

i wrote about,
the simplicity to you, that oh made me wish
to be able to hold thy hand
and someday, build us a home
so as to make you a part of my mornings

and oh my love, i wrote;

i wrote,
about how attractive, was the elegance to you

i wrote
about the calmness to you
that oh made me wish,
for myself to reside in your eyes

oh my love, i wrote.

oh i wrote it all,
but oh never could read it to you

oh my love, i did meet you
but oh never got to know you

and oh my love, after all this while

it seems, i didn’t just like you

but oh, i loved you.

nuzhat was a girl, in my batch, back when i was in jamia. and this is all that there is, in this story.

with love

i won’t count the stars

Posted on by srijan.

i won’t count the stars
on the awaited night
when oh how she’d dress all blank
but oh still,
how she would dazzle all

she gave way to the swinging
and oh how she smiled her light
through them
as they giggled in delight; in a journey of their own
while having herself, find a place
under the sky’s skin

oh how when i seem to gaze
i do not care for her being colorless

for she’s the lady, i’d like my eyes, to color it with
for an eternity
never far, always near
close but closer; in my arms
for i’ve written enough love
and caressed enough paper with my words

now it is but my time, to personify
the already personified

and love, every bit of this blank one
for oh she seems to be the only one
who is oh so simple and rather innocent
with something in her eyes
i can’t still seem to find the right words for

oh i couldn’t help
but glance at her, for a while longer
for that was the beginning
of my love, that oh shall never be written
for all that i ever write, will be while feeling her palm; in mine
on every; blank, faded, torn
i’d find, but oh just for her

to see her smile, to have her smile more, to make her smile everyday
oh how beautiful, would it be?

oh how really beautiful would it all really be?

i wonder today

i’ll love soon

as and when i corner my eyes

under the tables

holding glimpses

for the special one

or

maybe i already have?

i’ve met many ladies, over the years. they were all different in some way. but still i’ve dated just one. and it’s probably because, i don’t seem to care for the most beautiful of them. nor do i wish for one, by my side. i dont wish for her to be rich, or once married. i don’t wish for her to have the same religion or share the same country as mine

i wish for someone deeper. someone my eyes sees, yet i’ve no words to express her. someone who looks simple, but is so much more than what she seems

Someone out there. Someone I dont know. Someone i’ll share all my love with

the light in my darkness; the kindest and the most caring one

for all

someone i’m destined with

until then

i dare not, give my love a name

only to keep it safe; awaiting.


with love
