My Stranger

 The stranger in the crowd

Who knows me more

Than anyone in my world around


We lived as parallels in this cross eyed world

Hoping to meet at infinity

When are worlds dissolve


But when we meet, we won't be strangers then

And you will get into my within.


Will you dislike me as you know me more

Or will I dislike you as we grow close


It scares me to think that something so beautiful

Would end up as mundane as our usual life


So dear stranger stay as one

Don't think much just hear me out 

Don't judge me , never pout


For you are important untill you don't know me

And when you do

It will lead to many cries

And oh darling it will be time to cut the ties


So dear stranger stay as one

I want someone so numb

Who hears my pain 

But doesn't strain


We laugh together at a silly joke

And talk about romantic movies that make us choke

We share songs when we don't know what to say

You uplift my spirits when things are at me to slay.


You aren't a stranger anymore you know

And that makes is difficult

Cos now you understand , feel,  judge , know my low


No no no this is not how it's supposed to be

My idea of therapy is a stranger listening to me..

It has now lead to many cries

And oh darling it is time to cut the ties.

The Way


She can't stay where she is, but has nowhere to go 

Everything seems right, and yet she feels so low.

She is seeing time pass by, that's what she can't stop  

If only time was on her side, then these doubts would not crop.

Sometimes she wonders if she will reach where she wants to be 

Or will that place still not make her happy

What is it? Why is it? 

Or what not and why not?

Confused and lost she takes a step forward each day

Hoping that someday she will find "the way"
