Fleeting Reality

A poet

Am I?

Or a moment?

A word today

A sound tomorrow

A breeze the day after

Will you then have the time

To spare me a thought?

Lend me an ear?

Give me the time?

Tomorrow

There will be others

Speaking better

Touching souls

Reaching depths

Of emotion

Scaling heights

Of passion

Creating the world

Of that moment

Before

They too become

A sound

My Protector, My Protected

Let me bare myself to you

Let me make myself vulnerable

Let me shed all my hang-ups

Let me be free of all expectations

Love me to make me fearless

Love me to make me myself

Love me to make me strong for you

Love me to make me invincible with you

Let my arms be your stronghold of safety

Let my love offer you reverence

Let my strength be your haven

Let my passion be your shield

Let my love be your guard

My Anchor

There is no destination for me but you

There is no place for me but by you

Since I came into this world

I have done nothing but love you

Since I have loved you

There is nothing else I can do

Look at me from top to toe

I am just a feeling of love

Take me in your arms but once

That I may find some peace

I have wandered in wilderness

Searching for you

This world which is filled with colours now

Was a conspiracy of isolation

Before I loved you

Your presence in this world

Has anchored me

Has settled it down

There is no destination for me but you

There is no place for me but by you

Love Calls

How will you stay away from me

When you hear my song

All walls will collapse

When this tune is played

You will have to come to me, my love

Drawn by your heart

To one who is just a pillar of feeling

A feeling of love

A feeling of adoration

A feeling only for you

For I have no presence

For I have no identity

Except for the love of you

I am only a heartbeat

Calling out your name

I am just a soft breeze

Flowing towards you

Your soul will not be able to resist

The call of its mate

For we are nothing alone

Together is our fate
