monotony

If you were an obsession

I’d write you a novel

The story would be redemptive

A best- seller.

But I doubt that I still have

My heart you’ve stolen

The love that was conceived

And grew in summer mornings

I love you like the spark of amber

I tell you this as a sacred pledge

I love you but I remain unnoticed

I love you in silence, in madness.

I crossed the thread of pain

And died in the process

My heart fled and you caught it

Like cigarette smoke, sublime yet elusive

You had me, my love so genuine

So pure that even I was purified

But you just let me slip

I fall with the crowns of hurt

I surrender, I fall like the broken pieces of a wine glass

I cry like beer being poured out

Life is existence

But life is absence without love

I owe you this bliss

Like a debt I could never pay

But I forget you and try to empty my puny heart

Leave me, will you?

to where you are..
