This entanglement with you
Like Madhumalati
Is beautiful!

-

Your beautiful wait at one corner...
Seeing the scene from a distance
My heart stopped for a moment.
The other day I saw your side face-
It is like the slope of the Shivaliks; Gradual and gentle; The river flows below your brown feet! The moment would stay forever with me.

-

Your love is like roasted cashew
Without a pinch of salt.

-

Finding you through the mist
I feel the quest has come to an end.
We have similarities
Differences too!
But that differences don't repel us.

-

You wanted me to let go of your arms
And confront this vast world
I moved from one hemisphere to other
With a smile on my face and the few words I learnt to survive;
I met different people..
Everyday, I was slowly dying inside
There was no light to come in
Over the years, I understood
The world remains indifferent!
And we always travel alone
With our own circumstances.

-

Your thick specs
Behind those your narrow eyes...
Became narrower as you flipped through the newspaper.
Towards the end you had to use a
magnifying lens...
as no surgery could fix your retina.
Your reflection through me,
mine through yours,
Your words mine, mine yours
our bond eternal.

-

The poetry was a gift from you!

I recall the slender, dark man.
Always appeared
Younger than his age
Was tender in his heart!

-

If your mind is not with me
You are never there!

-

Let me write the best love poem for you.
Though there is only emptiness
I would find from you, I know.
I don't want to let it go.
Wind brings your voice near me.
I paint your silhouette
against the dimming sky.

-

The sincerity in your heart
Your beautiful wait at one corner
The nights are chilly...
But you can feel the warmth.

I can see my smile in your eyes
I can wait thousand years!
