For once in my life I want to be the poem and not the poet,
Away from the worries of beginning and ends,
Not caring about the middle either,
Just existing like the phenomenon of God,
This desire to leave the worry about commas and rhymes behind,
Fills me in the hope of enjoying what I'm made up of,
Like loose threads hanging from the hemn of Ma's newly brought saree.
Like the entire saree loses its existence once the thread realises it's individuality.
I want to be the warmth for once,
Exploding like the sun in someone's heart.
I want to be rhythm to that heart.
I want to be 'love' and not loved.
I want to be a poem for once in someone else's diary.
