and i sought the moon ,
knowing well that
its light will never
warm me .
possible is only the illusion
that i can reach it .
in nature, my meeting
with the moon
is impossible .
just a reverie .
i desire you
more than
the moon
itself .
-
and i move through a world
that no longer feels real ,
haunted by echoes of
what i have lost .
people speak ,
but their words
pass through me
like i am nothing
more than the air .
among them ,
i'm invisible .
among them ,
i am dead .
-
but amidst all the endless dreams ,
unattainable desires ,
the only thing that
the destiny allowed ,
the only reality that
felt like a dream
was - me
meeting
you .
-
and perhaps ,
every shooting star
was just the universe
trying to remind me
of your
name .
-
and
whenever
it feels like
i've forgotten
something ,
the
first thing
i look for is
you .
-
and the only proof that
i can exist without you
is beating of
my heart .
yet ,
with each pulse ,
i realise ,
it isn't mine
to claim ,
for
it still beats
in your name .
-
and i have lost everything
that mattered except
the memory of you ;
it stayed like a wildfire ,
consuming everything
in its path, leaving only
ash and regrets .
still ,
i love .
i love as if
i am cursed
to love
you .
forever .

writing you brings me
a sense of peace ,
yet each word i write ,
reminds me ,
you are the source
of my sorrows
too .
love ,
you are
my grief .
