I Love You

I was walking in a garden,
so large that it is everywhere,
on every side, I could see it and nothing else.
It looked odd, the garden,
lovely red with roses all over there,
full of life, that they could feel my presence.
I could not stop but watch,
those beautiful roses, like cute little babies,
surely they are the masterwork of their creator, the God.

Then it happened, very strange,
It could be an illusion, I thought then,
but deep in my heart, I know it is very much real.
The roses, they started to arrange,
themselves in some peculiar fashion,
some shape, could be a circle, but very unclear.
Slowly, I began to realise that,
it’s not a circle, but a face, of someone,
I knew that face very clear, very close in fact.

As if someone’s pushing me,
or it might be the roses sucking me,
I fell into that face, into the roses, but I didn’t resist.
I never reached the ground,
It was so deep that I am still going in.
I can neither see nor feel it, but I don’t fear it.
‘Cause, I know it.
I know it was your face, and
it’s your love that’s taking me in and in.
And love can’t be feared,
It can only be accepted and lived.
I can only respond to that love by loving you.

I love you.

A Confession

It ended the way it began, reminding me,
that a lie can never be true nor it can be made into one;
I have no idea why I wanted that lie to be a reality,
Not even the least, but I simply hoped it could be done.

Unlike myself, a lie is never single,
one-by-one it grew into many, as if a chain reaction;
I tried making true each of the lies,
Succeeded in every lie, except the one.

I still hoped, one day, she would be mine,
then, all the lies told to them, could be excused;
That I could really make my love story true,
a story written by them and lived in my dreams.

There came a day, I could take it no more,
But everything had changed and I could not go back;
The lie was still a lie and she can never be mine,
I had to end the love story with another lie, fooling myself.

Now all that love story has ended,
I feel guilty of that one lie, the one I told them,
The one I tried making true and bitterly failed,
But I can never confess it to them, I fear I may lose them too.

My head is spinning...

My head is spinning, throughout the day,
I have been running, sourly at the bay.
I keep on running, don't know where, 
My heart lamenting, nobody to share.

Is it my fault, or is it destiny?
Why did it start, to end as a memory?
Why is it me, always the one to lose?
And why is it she, the lady I chose?

Dreams and walks, gone are those days,
Standing by the rocks, I saw her face.
Beautiful were her eyes, though filled with tears,
It wasn't a disguise, and I had my fears.

 She left me forever, "Forget me", she said
I can do that never, even if I am dead. 
Shattered are my dreams, just like a glass,
Unheard are my screams, lost in a mass.

 My head is spinning, throughout the day,
I have been running, sourly at the bay.
I keep on running, don't know where,
 My heart lamenting, nobody to share.
