Writing You Poem by Udita Garg

I had been lost in love… forever
Why and how were never answered
The desire to be always together
With each second, it quadrupled

Days passed talking to each other
Till everything came to a deafening silence
Uninterrupted sweet-talks of the lover
Fade now into a creative license

I write what I wish to write about it
Truth is lost forever, my interpretations surface
Nobody cares about the tit- bits
You emerge as my hand painted face

I have written you in my songs
No one can check the right and the wrong
I have taken the liberty you never gave me
In the guise of poetry, I write my side of the story

My self love and love for you
Intermingled to form diffused identities
I need not say I love you
Because I know longer know what it is

Your eyes and my eyes looking into each other
Lose them in the form of my verse
And in somewhere exists the world
We are not alone with the words

People see you through my eyes
And they can never reach you
My hands paint your smiles
And sometimes a false blue

You exist in me and me in you
Who knows where lies the truth?
You can never undo now these colors
And you yourself love my words

I will never put you down
Unlike you did me
Or perhaps it was I only
Who touched the ground?

With your words
Now I use the same device
The speech, the power to write
To have my own world

It might not be devoid of you
Perhaps, because in you I saw me
A potent, latent and untold me
And that was why I loved you

You were what I longed to be
And you will be therefore here eternally.
