Loves Theory
Hearts are but all broken,
Inert or outspoken,
An irreversible reaction;
Cutting to the soul, connection,
Mending it- forlorn,
Everyone that has been born,
No one has succeeded,
Wrong advice they heeded,
Love is in the broken pieces
Where you think it misses,
They hold enough to save the world
From hate in its hold,
To those lacking love,
Give them all you have,
Loving a new person eachday,
Repairs the soul everyday,
And the day you give all your heart,
(When all of it you part)
At that point you're complete-
Rich and replete

Legend Of Stars
It has been a centuary,
For you searching on Alpha Centauri,
With the love I harnessed on Venus,
I cut through the galaxy like a scissors,
Made you a wedding band of Saturns rings,
A light away I hear your heart as it sings.
I have written you poems with star dust-
Written you poems on the Sun's crust,
I have one of Jupiter's moons for you a jewel,
Around your neck I'm certain it will look swell
I bear roses red as Mars,
I am sure this day will be ours.
And in the milky way-
We will stay.

Afer she smiled, a kiss she blew me
After she smiled, a kiss she blew me,
Like a woodpecker making her nest
I heard my heart quake,
When she turned around- drenched his lips,
Out of my eyes came something like water;
A garland of shattered dreams
On a night I ere thought perfect,
My happiness a fleeting nova,
As she grabbed hers with all fingers-
And toes,
Betrayals quintessence yet she never mine was.
Had a shooting star's promise had been broken,
Or did she wish him a moment after I her?
Light and blackness separated by a hair,
Took her a second to abandon our moment-
And I, eternity

You
The sound of your tears as they hit the floor,
The love you bleed through your soul is where I belong,
Will I lose you like you have lost your heart that I seek?
Disappear from your blood before I flow in it?
Leave you breathless when you are-breathless?
I fall before you; begging your broken heart to beat,
Should I make this world disappear so that you may notice me?
You are the rising tides of my blood,
The heart within my heart,
The mind within my soul-
The image I call mine,
The being I was born to love.

Asthana
Darkness lingers, thy day fast approaches,
Mine tears they crack the grounds of heaven,
Death doth thee harbor any reproaches;
The sacred in shadows of thy haven?
In these times no one hath more faith than I
That thou canst change thy wicked ways
If only once thou look'd me in the eye-
Come, and I will lead thee out of this maze.
I know that thee hath not any friends,
I'll teach thee the art of how to trust,
Let me be the horizon thy sorrow ends,
The one to polish thy heart of rust.
Together lets hold the history pen,
And erase all thee hath caused, the pain.

The Perfect Song
If I wrote the perfect song,
Its notes and how the cords
Ought to be played-
The song would be one to
Describe our love's journey
All our highs, lows, ups, downs,
Laughs- our cries—
Its melody would be tailored by
Orchestral instruments;
A shed of electric guitars and drums,

Soulmate
As a key for one lock,
We -heart for heart,
Through actions or frozen moments,
Miscommunication or hailstorms,
In word or silence,
Still, our thoughts will remain intertwined,
Thy beauty; thy spirit will possess my mind,
When rain clouds engulf our eyes,
Our solace behind the Sun's shadow,
And though our lives mortal,
Our love be immortal,
Mute women will sing our song,
Blind men will paint our future,
I will always breathe through your lips,
Give you life, -
Like a gush of wind through grasses,
As we revere our cascading loves horizon,
'Till death takes your hand in marriage.

I wondered In Her Heart Like A Lonely Child
I wondered in her heart like a lonely child,
Care free- Her blood feeding my soul,
Lost like a sweet aura escaping a fresh rose,
It is I her heart sings for, beat after beat.
I love her with all of me-
All of love,
I have the sum of all love in the world in me,
A love stronger than the strength of all of love.
Today I look for her,
Tomorrow I look at her,
After- I look into her,
Take my hand- Take me to the paradise in your eyes.
Darling, breath of my breath,
Warmth of my Sun, wings of my soul-
Please, to the paradise in your eyes,
There- forgotten by all but remembered by death.

A Dream
Today, I woke up smiling,
The dream I recall not darling,
But if it was not about you,
I wouldn't wake up with this hue
Only unless I took you by the hand,
To lands beyond those dunes of sand,
For one or two a tango,
Under a tree of mango,
I doubt I'd be smiling like this,
And unless you gave me a kiss
Where the Sun outlines my face,
I wouldn't be in this happy place,
Did you tell me tales of forever,
Instilling in me a fever
Of beautiful things to come
In your heart that I call home?

Limbo
I thought I would live forever, like Newton or Shakespeare-
Until you were gone I realized you were my life’s elixir,
I tore your heart to pieces yet it is mine that is torn-
Numbed, suffocated, mutilated, annihilated-
The petals to my heart do not bloom anymore,
I turn back the hands of time on my watch-
Earth did not turn back for me,
All women turn right when I turn left,
Whatever they see cannot be less than the truth,
No one believes I have changed-I cried love too many times,
I am between history and forgotten, dust and ash-
I am dead-not officially; death is taking too long to pick me up.
