From A Muddy Road To A Bicycle Poem by Puspanjali Sahu

I knew
Your body will tremble
little
Maybe more than little
But I was sure
You will never crumble

That's why I tried to hold u
tight
More than tight
I knew
I made crossing me hard for you
which in your imagination
was light

But believe me
I was not trying to
made you suffer
For me, it was not a pleasure
I was trying hard
to measure
Each part of your body
Your height, your width
Strength of your mind
and softness of your heart
Depth of your eyes
and sharpness of your nails
I even measured
the curvature of your curls

Because
If someday
You will come back
Searching for yourself
I can show you
Reflection of your true self
On my soul
