When My Heart Complains! Poem by Abhishek Shah

Often when I miss you, you say don't!
Always when I ask you, you say you won't.
Alone when you are, do you ever me seek?
Or find me pesky and avoid to speak.

You ask the same uncertainty, over and again.
Tormenting my soul, my heart withering in pain!
It is but certain how unsure you are.
When I come close, you push me far.

I crawl and strive, I've fallen and grown.
But a single questioning doubt, and my world's happiness is blown.
Even the faintest of your whispers like a clarion I hear.
My actions are safe yet you get anxious with fear.

Penurious, uncouth and clumsy you claim I am,
Giving me a thousand deaths, spoken when.
I am many things, but not them, and much beyond what I show;
But is it what you think of me? I need to know!

Frustrates and insane, is how I am getting now.
Yet you keep me sane, I don't know how.
Tired and exhausted, I have always clung to the hope that there will be a happy end.
No more now, if something breaks then we together will mend.

A promise of forever, a promise to care.
My hand is outstretched, will you be there?
