Memory Of You

Wish you could hear this song
Playing aloud in my head,
Without you, it feels so wrong
Without you here instead

Written for your smile
Lost in your charm,
Written for the years,
You'd burrow into my arms

I'm living a million lifetimes with you
Even though you're so far,
But even with all those lifetimes
I'd still want one more

I'm a prisoner of these dreams
But so chained to reality,
A sentence to be served
Away from you for an eternity

What kept me going, yesterday,
And held me alive today,
Is the memory of you for tomorrow
Till the end of all days..

What I Need..

As I look into your eyes,
those pupils leading to your mind

When every scent pleasures you
Lingering in your sigh

When every pore on your body
feels me to the brim

As you listen to my voice
Shaped by love not whim

When you've let me fill,
Your mind, body and soul

All I need is your lips
To say, "I'm yours, my love"

Satisfaction

I saw the most beautiful girl tonight
The wind riding her hair
I fell for her smile
which I couldn't compare

Felt an eternity pass by
in that instant
Lived a lifetime with her
in that moment

But do I open my mouth
Before I lose that second
Should I murmur or shout
See if her toes beckoned

I met the most beautiful girl tonight
Spoke to her for a while
I had to be satisfied, with her smile
Knowing, she'd never be mine

Home.

Eight A.M.,
I'm out of bed,
Dreading my
day ahead

On my way,
At my desk,
I drift away
Right and left

She's always there,
in my sight,
never out
of my mind's eye

Away from her,
By a hundred miles,
Yet in no time,
Am by her side

Trees and birdies
on lazy evenings
like in the movies
But is it worth it?

And afterwards
as everything subsides,
That's when I,
Realize

I'm a fool in my
Own imagination
Loving whom
Without reciprocation

Now its eight P.M.,
in this world,
I'm heading home
Where i'll be alone

Its also eight P.M.
In another world,
But where I'm heading to
Her heart's my home..

Taken..

Though we talked for hours on end
We never talked about it,
And yet there's so much of you
that I still can't reach

I can't spurt cliches
or fancy pick-up lines,
But I wouldn't mind trying
If that's what you like

I hope I've done you no harm
or promises I've breached,
I pray I haven't gone wrong
with all those romantic schemes

I think I've grown up
Matured and changed,
And I hope I don't end up
Making the same mistake again

As I try hard to reconcile
That no matter how much I try,
You'd only be taken
By whom you want to be taken by..

Lost in you..

Streaking
Across the sky
Diamond studded

Falling
Through space
Unobstructed

Hoping
Yet contemplating
If you'd catch me

Crash-landing
Into your arms
Safely

Awakening
from a dream
seen vividly

Brushing aside
thy tresses
upon your visage

Lost, looking,
At you
For eternity

Confusions evaporate
And my mind is as clear
as can be

Need no eyes to see
That you are so beautiful
To me..

All I Want To Do

All I want to do
Is hold you tight,
Be with you
Home and dry

Read a book
by your side,
Judge by your look
If everything's alright

Watch a movie
Arms entwined,
Count the seconds
Flying by

As I rest my weary head
Upon your shoulder,
The dread disappears
So does the fear

After all the pain
Money can bring,
Only you,
can make me feel like a king

On this cold dreary day,
All I want to do
Is just say,
I love you..

Time to Choose..

Didn't really know
What the fights were for,
Wasn't really clear
On what went wrong,

Do you know, when I think of you
Something inside me cries,
Whenever I think of us,
Something inside me dies

Didn't realize
what I inadvertantly read,
Didn't understand
how my mind was misled..

Now it's so easy
To spot your lies,
As they flow
Underneath those sighs

Is it that you
couldn't love me more,
Or is it that you
are still unsure

The second choice, my love,
Will not be I,
If you can't choose now,
This is it, goodbye..

Forever from tonight..

I loved you honey from the day
you crossed my eyes,
I'm glad you said yes
with that loving sigh..

Let me show what we can do
more than just get by,
We can make together darlin' now
if we try..

If you could melt with me baby
I'd say, come on girl give it a go,
Cause I'm gonna love you
like never before..

Step by step
I'm gonna teach you, girl
Lovin' you easy just
like a swirl..

Sweet caressing like your
Loving curls,
Never ever ever gonna
hurt you girl..

Smooth and sensual,
that's my style,
I would give you all I got
just to make you smile..

Come along baby
lets get down alright,
Cause I'm gonna be
your man forever tonight..

Please stay..

Your arms are all I'll ever hold
For when you need me the most,
Your face is all I'll ever touch
As I cherish every moment unfold..

Your lips are all I'll ever need
With a smile like a Queen,
Your tresses are all I'll ever feel
Long black with their silky sheen..

In your eyes are all I'd ever see
The future, the past and everything in between,
Visions of what could be
Together eternally..

Forever and a day won't be enough
To show you all the love I feel,
So won't you please stay
And make these dreams real..

Just because...

Just because I'm accommodating,
doesn't mean you should over-rule my opinions,

Just because I try to be nice,
doesn't mean you can push my limits..

Just because I'm a friend,
doesn't mean you could take advantage of me,

And just because I have a heart,
doesn't mean you have to make me bleed...

The Wallflower..

Are you having a good time
dancing, away from
the light

As the backbeat fades,
Can I read
your mind

Let me inside,
Its no crime
having to hide

Let us enter a whole new world,
more pleasurable than
the daily grind

Is it comfortable
back there, away from
the light

And has anyone told you
how lovely you look
tonight..

From Here to Eternity..

My heart skips a beat
with each sigh,
And her every smile
gets me high

Every word
Is a sign,
With every note
Etched in my mind

Every inflection,
A symphony,
Every infraction,
Erased from memory

Every whisper,
A prayer in devotion,
Every step,
Love in motion

Every movement,
A lesson in grace,
Every glance,
A flight into space

Every moment
in proximity,
Is not a second,
but an eternity..

Mine..

From the moment i saw
that twinkle in your eye,
I knew I'd found my elixir,
of life, and joy

Waiting for that day,
To spend a moment with you,
Pursuant to a fault,
What I thought was true

We kept no secrets,
From the past,
Since the time we knew,
This would last

We moved in rhythm,
our thoughts in sync,
Like lapping waves,
passionate to the brink

All those rules broken
with our love, unspoken,
Till time unending,
till the tides would come in

But come in they did,
and the devil did they send,
You chose bitterly (i hope)
to let it end

Now battered and bruised,
I'm left to rue
Chances untaken
My loss uninsured

Those lovely eyes
black pearls, never mine,
Those tiny lips
mine would never entwine

I used to think
Love maketh a man,
But now I know
only heartbreak can

As i drift into bliss
in my mind's eye,
onto memories
that i fantasize

Another place,
another time..
Another world,
and you'd be mine..

About Time..

I thought I knew
heaven when I spotted her,
I thought I knew
ecstasy as she spoke..

I thought she knew
my feelings as I laughed with her,
But she never knew
what she meant to me and more..

I thought it was
as obvious as it could be,
What more could she want
what more than me?!

How can i make her realise
that its never a perfect fit,
You've got to twist and turn
just a little bit..

I guess its time I tell her
that she's exquisite,
Its about time I took my chances
Or about time I quit..
