You are closer than you appear.
Now am I looking at you from very near?
Because I can see you crystal clear
I see those ups and downs
I see your smiles and frowns.
Certainly you are insecure
Like an oblivious fledgeling learning to fly
Aren't you looking for a cure?
A cure that can take you to the highest high
You are like an open book
I'll go through you by hook or by crook
I'll highlight your key element
Fully tinged, there's nothing irrelevant
I am like a frozen, imprisoned lake
In your warmth I'll thaw for your sake
Your not so rare black eyes
Are inundated with a hint of depth and surprise
You have a mind quite vast
It's like a wide gleaming ocean
In it resides the wisdom that will forever last
This might sound exaggerated but it's pure emotion
In your consciousness I entered somehow
Inside it I'll remain bathed till my last only if you allow
I will stay there and make a castle out of our solidarity
Merging it with dash of love and plethora of purity.
About this poem
I wrote this poem with just one thought in my mind. While writing this, I was totally lost in the cesspool of my own thoughts which was kind of messy but beautiful. I poured by heart out and didn't want to end this feeling. It was just magical. So, this poem will always remain close to my core.
