Remember the nights of last year,
Kissing underneath the sheets.
Now that I'm away,
She's laying in your arms.
But when you look into her eyes,
Do you think of me?

She had that magic in her. The kind, they talk about in those fairy tales.

Is it you whirling around the universe or it's the universe whirling around you? Trying to figure out what are you thinking, what are you upto, what are you. You'll never know.
The universe matters to us cause we do to the universe. That's how it is.
It witnesses our existence like a spectator not ready to play any role in the action. But it does. Sometimes smiles at us while sometimes tries to make us cry standing there. Our existence matters to this universe.
It all comes down to the smiles. That's what I've learnt till now. There's always a thing existing in this universe same as yours, thinking about your smile. The way it'll affect it and the way it'll be its cause. Even the tear that falls down leaving you, hopes that the next thing you'll do is smile. It might take alot for you to know how precious your smile is but not for the one who looks at it and knows the reason why you haven't smiled for moments that just passed and got written in the diary titled 'past’ by this universe.
A flower falls from the sky on the shoulder of a kid who was trying to hide behind the tree playing hide n seek with an imaginary friend. Like a familiar knock on shoulder, the flower felt someone who tries to make you smile. Pressed between the pages of a drawing book, the kid keeps the flower for years to come. A memory, a past or a smile is what the kid will call the dried flower later. It all comes down to a smile.
You'll never know how much you mean to this universe for it'll never show you. Maybe it's you who should try to figure it out on your own. With a smile :")

I've been saying I don't make sense. A proof is what you have now. I hope a smile is what I'll have in return.

PS: You might find this beautiful cause it's supposed to be as this is for you, beautiful.

We take breaths
carrying the essence of plants,
we breathe those friendly winds
offered to us,
acknowledge the earth who has
cared for us since we were a
dream planting itself,
precisely within heads and desires,
we found our way to the circle and fire
that kept burning by the keepers of our soul
these keepers take many forms,
animal, stone, ancestor, plant, bird, saint etc
My keeper called me in a way
that my spirit wanted to return,
he spoke to me as if
I were his beloved child,
my body had sort of a blizzard in it's bloodstream
white blood cells multiplying crazily,
forming storm and forcing me
to be a mere transparent friend to him,
with circulatory system mapped out in
rivers of blue than red instead,
It's still a joke, that me, in extremis
when my world was supposed to end
it grew sweeter instead,
like my body gave itself up
to another system,
like with every beat of his heart
I receive the pumped blood,
A pain bloomed, I was told that
it's okay to forego details,
that it doesn't matter now
because we two remain together,
I'm yet to know by what miracle tho,
the world for me and
all the world can hold circles around him,
within the touch of his fingers
and shadows of his eyes
lies my only world
I want no surer heaven than his arms
I lie there like a butterfly on a flower
with sunshine that'd light our tears
we will create a rainbow together
I'll say my last word and join the air
the air that stays and goes on and on forever.

He watched as she walked down the platform.
Her hair shined
Long and brown
Rising and falling
As the wind tumbled through the station

His eyes dried
But he dared not blink
As even the briefest moment of darkness
Was too long for him.
He took a deep breath and stepped forward.

Unsure of himself
Unsure of what action to take
He felt the moment slipping away
She needs to hear, he thought
She needs to know
Despite his fear
And how things appeared
She needed to hear
Everything he felt
Everything he thought

But there he stood
Frozen by his own insecurity
Confused by the push and pull within him.
The moment melted away
And he knew that things would never be the same.
He knew that he’d never feel the same
He knew regret would forever swirl within him
It was his own doing
And that was the worst part

He lit a candle inside of himself that day
A flame he knew would never die
A signal of hope
That he may
Be able to say
Everything he should’ve
On that day
