I think I'm in love with you ...

I don't know what to say,

or even what to do,

all I know is that

I think I'm in love with you.

Yes, I’m in love

what else can I say?

I guess it just happened

and grew more with each day.

This may sound crazy I know,

But I needed to let it out

because there is something there,

I know without a doubt

How do I tell you?
Where do I begin?
Every time I think of you
It stirs up feelings hidden deep within.

My love blooms for you

like a flower in spring,
With petals sprinkled with dew

it’s an amazing and beautiful thing.

I hold on to it gently

and feel its light glow,

as into my heart

it begins to flow.

I don’t want to take it slow,

nor do I want to rush .

There’s no need to worry,

There’s no reason for any fuss.

Sometimes the words don’t come easy to me

but the feelings always do,
I don't know what's happening

but I think I'm in love with you.

I always enjoy the time I spend with you,

Because nothing makes me feel the way you do.
From now until the end of time,

I will always be in love with you.

Thinking Of You .....

This poem is dedicated to a special person :)

Thoughts of you creep into my head
late at night as I lay silently in my bed.

I imagine what it'll be like,
Meeting you for the first time
Will it be all new and scary?
Or like I’ve known you for a lifetime?

I walk across my room thinking of you.
How far across you seem to be.
I sit and I think, while I am thinking of you.
Are you even thinking of me?

My stomach aflutter,
with butterfly wings
Emotions and thoughts;
and so many other things.

Knowing I already like you
Praying you like me too
Hoping we get along fine,
I trust in your heart, but do you trust in mine?

Thoughts of you creep into my head
late at night as I lay silently in my bed.

To Sonu ..With Love

They are your companions for life - only that when this companion leaves you suddenly that you realise that they were such an important part of your life. they come into our lives for such short time and before you know it they leave "the footprints of their little paws" in our lives.

This poem is for one such companion I had , I dedicate it to SONU.

Sunlight streams through the windowpane
unto a spot on the floor,

then I remember - it's where you used to lie,

but now you are no more.

I remember how you’d run to me

to play your favorite game,

And how your ears would perk right up

on hearing me call your name.

You’d wake me up each morning,
By licking on my face
You’d run around me in circles;
In your fast pace.

You’d jump on me as soon as I come
We’d roll together on the lawn
If anyone tried to separate us
You let out a loud moan

You always knew;
If I were having a bad day

so you'd snuggle up close to me;
And try to get me to play.

If that didn't work;
You’d put your head in my lap

then make yourself comfortable;
And take a sound nap.

You’d always lend a thoughtful ear,

a problem you’d never miss.
I miss the way, on my cheek
You’d lay a little doggy kiss.

Old habits still make me think

I hear a barking at the door.

Or step back when I drop

a tiny morsel on the floor.

My feet still go around the staircase

where the food dish used to be,
I still sit on the terrace all alone,
Thinking you are still listening to me.

It still pains me that I was not with you
On your last day
I wish I had one last chance to do something
That would have made you stay.

I wish somehow to tell you,

how empty I now feel.

A part of me went with you,

a part that time can't heal.

Although time may bring new friends

and a new food dish to fill,

that one place in my heart belongs to you

and always will.

-Megha.

The Eternal Dance

Well.. thanks to the continuous showers of rain I was finally able to pen a few lines ...

Falling gently down,
The rain drops dance.
They sail through the air,
Putting me in a hypnotic trance.

Flying through the screens,
They twist and twirl.
They dance the eternal dance –
Those lustrous pearls.

I close my eyes and listen,
To the raindrops fall with glee.
I dance to the beating rhythm,
A rhythm – that sets me free.

My feet find a way to me,
To an unknown melody I sway.
With raindrops glittering wet on my cheeks,
I dance as my weariness fades away.

I dance through my sadness
I dance through my fears
I dance through all my feelings
Of both happiness and tears.

They still continue to fall,
With such grace and poise.
Dancing in the clouds,
Unperturbed by the thunder’s noise.

Dancing makes me feel so good inside,
It brings a smile that I cannot hide.
I move in harmony to the rhythm of my heart,
It gives my life an all-new fresh start.

Er... Um.....

Well.. Its been some days I've actually penned something good .. N I had this fear if I had forgotten how to write ..... So the following four lines just came when I was feeling really dumb and dint know what to write .. hehehe .....Writing poetry can be fun ,

Except when I feel a lil dumb ,

I ponder and strive for something to say ...

Sorry - there's nothing new here today !!!

I know that was really dumb .. but here's promising to you tat I will soon return with something really good ...

Till then ...... :)

Reflections Of Yesterday

As the sun is slowly setting
And the evening shadow grows
I think back on the days gone by,
To a place I’d like to go.

Back to a place in my childhood
When days were so carefree,
Back to the days when my mummy’s lap
Was my favorite place to be .

Those days of pillow fights,
And playing in the front yard
Those days when growing up was fun
And nothing seemed too hard.

All too soon we turn around
And find ourselves all grown
With adult responsibilities
And worries of our own.

The memories of yesterday
Come quickly in my mind
When as an adult I am searching
For answers I cannot find.

We struggle through our losses
Gain strength from each hurdle crossed
And learn that we are not fully alone
Especially when we feel m ore lost

Now the shadows have faded to darkness
The day’s warmth is growing up
I look up to the stars in the sky
And wonder what tomorrow will hold

The stars are shinning don brightly
Almost as if to say –
Sleep well my dear and don’t be afraid
For tomorrows a brand new day.

Forever and Always

Have you ever loved someone, but for your love he never really knew,
You'd always say love you tons and he'd always just love you too.
Did you ever just wanna make him understand or make him acknowledge the words you say,
But it's like it never works out, you're the one hurting the most at the end of the day.

Have you ever had someone who was your morning, afternoon, and you're night,
He meant the world to you, he was your sunshine, he'd be your moonlight.
Have you ever had him so close to your heart it's like everything would always be just right,
Because he was your everything, he'd be your moon and the stars in the sky at night.

Have you ever thought about him 24/7, wondering what he'd be up to or even where he was,
You'd call him for no real reason at all, only calling just because.
Have you ever found yourself getting mad because you never had enough time for what you had to say,
You'd always have to wait for next time because there'd never be enough time that day.

Have you ever had someone to talk to, whenever it felt like your whole world was coming to an end,
He'd just sit there and listen, and then tell you it's all okay and that he'd always be your best friend.
He'd tell you he'd be there forever, no matter what the people say,
And no matter what everyone else thinks because he'd always love you anyway.

Have you ever wasted your day waiting, all because he said he'd call,
Have you ever wanted to tell him how you felt when it felt as if he never really cared at all.
Have you ever longed for his kiss or even thought about his smile,
And then just cried thinking about him only because you haven't seen him in a while.

Have you ever spent the whole day with him, but at the end it felt like the time just passed you by,
It's like your time was up but you didn't wanna let him go because you weren't ready to say goodbye.
Have you ever missed him soo much it's like you felt as if you were loosing your one and only best friend,
Because he was a big part of your life and it felt as if your whole life was coming to an end.

Have you ever fell asleep at night and dreamt about just being together,
One of those dreams you've always dreamt of having, the ones you'll always remember.
The ones walking along the beach with your bare feet in the sand,
Or laying on a blanket watching the stars while he's holding your hand.

Have you ever just cried about anything, you could never really explain what was wrong,
You'd just sit there in tears because it never really mattered if it felt as if you couldn't be strong.
Have you ever wondered if he really did love you because at times it seemed like that could never be true,
Because it was like he was perfect and you'd wonder why he'd really love someone like you.

Have you ever just scribbled on a paper, day dreaming, while drawing hearts around his name,
You'd be thinking about him all day, but spending one day without him just wouldn't be the same.
Have you ever just missed him like crazy, and at times it was like you never really knew what to do,
You'd try and do just about anything to spend time with him but he'd just never get the clue.

Have you ever gotten so frustrated with him,
And what made things worse was that he could never understand why.
He'd just sit there thinking everything was okay,
When really your emotions killed you inside.

Have you ever wondered about what he'd be thinking about and if you'd ever be crossing his mind,
Or have you ever felt that you were just an old chapter in his lost book, somewhere left for no one to find.
Have you ever just stopped worrying about things, because you knew that everything would always be okay,
Because even if things got hard, he'd still love you forever and always and it would always be that way.

Have you ever love him with all your heart, and for your love he always knew,
You'd tell him you loved him tons and he'd always be the one who whispered it back to you.
Have you ever had him understand, he'd always acknowledge the words you'd say,
Because he was your best friend "forever and always" he promised that day.
