Blue

It’s difficult to just even touch you.
Though I want to feel your skin,
I am not the right person to do so.

I move away when I want to stay,
Because even when we are together,
You do not belong to me.

It’s touch and go like how the waves kiss the shore.
We are together now,
Then apart by the count of four.

The sky can see us.
He knows what is happening.
He is just quiet,sad, and blue.

If it had been easy as giving you flowers,
I would have done that long ago.
Hence, all I can do is stare at your shadow.

It’s crazy because I feel blue too,
All the time I look at you.
The sky and I share emotions but not you.

Colors & Feelings

Blue is refreshing like the morning dew-
A constant reminder of a life anew.
Blue represents feelings and emotions too.
It's that sadness I feel when I'm not with you.

I wish I could color my world white,
But that's a bullet I have to bite.
Hence, I painted it gray and black;
Then I'll wait for you to come back.

Yet I'm sweet like orange for you;
It's one thing I don't usually do.
But you're sour and selfish though,
Which sets fire that no one can blow.

Your silly acts get me tickled pink;
One of the reasons why I'll sink.
You seem to have lost any feeling,
While I try to be caring and nurturing.

I can mention every color and hue
To put into words what I'm feeling
Hence, I wrote this ode for you
In memory of nothing.

Of Onions & Tears

You walk in and out of my thoughts;
I can’t stand the torture it gives me.
In the shadows we stay,
And that is my only reality.

But why would you just blankly stare
When I used to own your vision?
I am trying to keep it all in,
But like child I want to scream.

Some questions remain unanswered.
My fingers can’t count anymore.
Like your poor, tired, and sleepy eyes,
You heart wanders along the shore.

I can’t hold and keep you with me;
My hands aren’t capable of saving you.
Still, I don’t want to let you go,
For losing you means losing a part of me too.

I do not own you;
That’s why I live in fear.
I wish I can chop onions
Without shedding a tear.

You lead the way; I follow.
You push me away; I stay.
You give up; I do not give in.
You move on, I just can’t.
