Love feels like the leaves of Fall!

I am  hanging in
just with a small hope within.
Things would work out
somehow, someday.

I cling to you desperately
as you try to do away with me.
Like the autumn leaves ...
I try to hold on!
Like that dried maple leaf,
stuck on your windshield...
That you eventually
throw away.

Dead and dry
feels the love between us...
I don't know what's in my mind
and what is this fuss!

We have been out there long
craving for each other...
I wonder even if we remember
what's it like to be together!

Love feels like the autumn leaf...
changing colors
and eventually breaking off
without any feelings evident!

Without you!

I have given you
some golden moments in life.
Please rescue me,
I don't think I can survive.

This heartbreak will
will take me life away.
Without you I refuse to
survive even a day.

Here I am
Still waiting,
for a miracle to happen.
Still waiting
when you admit you love me.

Come back to me,
I love you truly!

Moments...

Every moment passes by,
without you, without your touch...
I wish you ever
missed me so much!

Love makes me
do stupid things..
Your memories linger...
makes my hear sing..

Come back to me
It's where you belong...
My love is true..
though my heart isn't  that strong.

So long.. I waited..
make me feel loved atleast!

Broken

I am broken within... 

My heart shattered, 

into infinite pieces. 

I try to pick the pieces 

and walk away, 

I want to maintain my poise and 

the calm in me.

Love, now,  seems so painful.. 

and life so hard... 

I don't know if I can survive 

this heartbreak.. and move apart!

My poems and you...

I gave you a rose, 

you kept it close. 

In return you sent me 

the painful thorns. 

I gave you a smile, 

you wear it all the while. 

In return you sent me

 endless tears. 

Long back, 

you asked me why... 

you aren't a part 

of the poems I write. 

I didn't know then 

but I know now.

My mind couldn't, 

but my heart read your eyes somehow....

If I loved you ever, 

you wouldn't have let me survive.

The Closed Door

I left messages,
I tried to call you.
Its been a while
I haven't heard from you..

I feel that you have
left me, alone.
I run to my car.
I drive off to your home.

I realize that you are gone, and
you want me no more,
as I wait on your porch,
after knocking at your door.

I walk back to my car....

I wonder if you ever
want to be found.

I still hope to see you
and I turn around. 

I guess 

I will never know....

what lies 

behind the closed door.

A thought!

Tired I am, looking at my life... 

A vast emptiness ahead of me, 

as empty as the glass

turned upside down on my table... 

It hurts to watch my dreams

disappear into this emptiness!

Maybe I should have been

that simple girl with no dreams.
