Having you by not having you.

Why would I ever want to possess you?
Why would I want to pluck you?
I like you alive With all your vibrancy and scent.
Having you around is all I want
Not even in flesh and blood
Just in my consciousness
Having you around Induces peace in me
A kind of peace I could not feel in years

Let not the world decide for you and me
For it is used to labelling things, putting things in boxes.
Naive, is world. Not you. Not me. 
For it will never understand
Things we want deep down elude labels
They don't come in boxes
Can't be described with precision either
It's always either a black or a white for the world

Let not the world decide for you and me
For they were never there
They were not in any of those moments I hold dear
They were not there when my heart skipped a beat on seeing you after days.
They were not there when your thought kept me awake all night long.
They were not there when I longed for you So much so that I wished teleportation didn't exist only in sci-fi :D :P
They were not there
They have never been there 
It has always been a two-people's-world

Being a Rose

Having seen the dark face of humanity,
Chose not not be tainted by it.

Having seen the roughest and the lowest,
Chose not to be reduced by it.

Having faced betrayal,
Chose not to grow bitter.

Having to survive through apathy,
Chose not to lose ability to empathise.

Having lived through dark,
Chose not to lose hope of seeing a sun.

Having surrounded by thorns,
Chose not to become one.

That's how you
Remain a rose between thorns.

The day you get over yourself

You will get over yourself some  day
And you will know what you missed throughout

For yourself were covered in a fog
Vision blurred

I will be far gone by then
Never to return

The day you get over yourself
You will know what you missed

The day we get over ourselves,
One love is all we need

Each Time You Leave

My heart sinks
Each time you leave
And I sit by the shore watching it sink
With no words to describe the sense of restlessness that runs through me
Each time you turn back and leave.

But, soon, it would die too
Giving way to numbness
For, I know you will not stay.

You leave
And the days become dimmer, places quieter.

I wish you knew I am not lying
When I say
This place falls apart without you.
It does fall apart without you.

The System

I have nothing against men, but patriarchy.
I hold no hatred against the other religions, but the ideology of communalism.

I don't hate you old friend for breaking touch, but this fast paced life.
I don't hate you for leaving me, but the circumstances that led us there.

Mum, I don't hate you; but the work that kept you occupied.
Dad, I don't hate you; but your socialization.
