I promise

I promise to be there

Even when you are not

I promise to be bare

Even if you have stopped

Especially when you have stopped

I promise to open the door

Everytime you knock

I will always be at the shore

Waiting for you round the clock

Even if you have stopped coming

Specially when you have stopped coming

I promise to cry with you everytime you are sad

I promise to laugh with you whenever I am happy

I promise to stand by you, during everything that is bad

I will always stitch it up, when things get patchy

Even if you stop paying attention

Specially if you stop paying attention

I promise to be me

I promise to never change

I promise these promises

Not in exchange

But because I believe in you and I know 

What all I have gained

From you and from your goodness

From us and our togetherness

I love you for everything that you can’t be

I promise to never push you into something that you can’t be

I promise you to keep all the promises

And whenever I couldn’t

I promise you I will try again

Till I could

I will wait

I sit at the corner

See you walk by

I see life pass by me

I have been here for eternity

Waiting on you

Waiting for you

You draw closer and closer

And look through me

Your eyes wondering on and around

I wait for them to stop

Stop by me

Halt on me

I want you to look at me

But you move on

One look never enough

One me not enough

The day I saw you,

My eyes were seized

My heart was lost

I was lost in your world

You became my world

My world alone and lonely

With you but without you

You are here

But I am waiting for you

One day you will look at me

Your eyes will see me

Your heart will feel me

My soul will touch yours

I will not bleed or cry

I will not plead or die

Till then

I will wait

On you

I will wait

For you

As per the prompt this is an old poem. Have edited, re phrased, revamped it quite a lot.

Lost and found

In your eyes

In your gaze

In your nights

In your days

I am lost and found

Hands in your hands

Each breath with your breath

Hooked to you

Look through you

In your touch

In your nudge

I am lost and found

Your words are my hunger

Your dreams my thirst

Your wonders are my wonders

Your arms my world

In your arms

In your dreams

In your wonders

And in your gleams

I am lost and found

Your journey my drive

Your life my life

Your music my jive

You win I survive

In your drives

In your Jives

In your loses

And in your strives

I am lost and found

I live with you

I die with you

I am alive in your life

I am dead in your deaths

I am as you as; you are

You are as me as; I am

We are lost and found in You and Me

Lost in your world

Lost in your world

Lost in the colors, in the fragrance, in your arms

Lost in the magic, in your world, in your charms

I dance on the petals and fly in the breeze

I breathe in each moment, each moment to freeze

Your world is exquisite, audacious and pure

Each color is valiant, each color demure

Your touch as bold as the orange hue

Your caress as soft as the subtle blue

I tip toe around and soak in each sight

Hopping on green, yellow and white

You spin me around to show me more

I see from your eyes the heavens galore

Eager to lose, in a quest to win

Glowing in red, burning in pink

Time has stopped, life has stopped

Each moment in your world,

Is a life time unfurled

My life lost in your life

My world lost in your world

Lost in the orange, white, pink and green

Found in the flush, blush, subtle and serene

I travel

I move...I float..I travel

Sipping each moment, living each memory

I groove, I gloat and I travel

I travel looking for me

I travel searching for my story

I am lost in the sea, I am found in the sea

World my home, roads my bed

Faces my book, chats my bread

I dance, I skip and I travel

So many faces, so many stories

So many wins and so many glories

So many masks, so many veils

With hidden tears and unspoken tales

I travel scathing through tales and living through wails

I cry, I smile and I travel

Bridges to cross, waters to swim

Skies to fly, songs to sing

Music to soak up, Nature to confine

Where I am in this beauty?

What is my story?

I am scattered all over the world

I am born with each smile

I die with each cry

I dance in their dance

I float in their hope

I live through their lives

And I travel through their stories

Sipping each moment, living each memory

I groove, I gloat and I travel

Memories

Late night chats, tucked in with you

Nothing to plan, nothing to worry,

Endless words, incessant chatter

Relentless gossips and inaudible laughters

You spoke I gasped, I spoke you grinned

You cried I wept, I sobbed you cried

Hands held together, nothing left unsaid

Hearts conjoined, tucked in the bed

The hidden signals, the veiled curses,

Your nose twist, my invisible wink, our rolling of eyes

Neighbourhood Romeos, my whistles, our sprints and our lies

Getting caught, getting punished, their shouts and sighs

Our promise to never do it again

And then doing it again

Never ending fun, never ending lessons

Memories of adolescence

Countless days

Countless nights

Countless moments with you

"Dedicated to my sweetheart sis...My best friend for life"

I walk barefoot

I walk barefoot with no direction

My direction lost with you

You scratched my soul

You stabbed deep in my heart

The void is still there

Your marks are still there

I look for you in no direction

I walk barefoot with no direction

I walk leaving blood spots

If you ever come looking for me

You will find my blood,

You will find pieces of me scattered here and there

I keep falling in no direction

I walk barefoot with no direction

With sin eating me away one by one

Nothing left, all eaten away

I only have eyes left, to wait for you

I wait for you in no direction

Hero

Whenever you are lonely

Whenever you are sad

Just fill your heart with hopes

And try’n look ahead

He is there for you

Carrying all the reds

Sharing all the blues

He is there for you

Whenever you feel empty

Whenever you feel mad

Just fill your heart with feelings

And try’n move ahead

Because he is there for you

Walking with you

Checking all the moves

He is there for you

 Whenever you feel cheated

Whenever you feel left alone

Just fill your heart with visions

And try’n see ahead

Because he is there for you

Sharing your vision

Looking out for you, to see you go through

He is there for you

Whenever you are on top

Whenever you feel complete

Just fill your heart with thanks

And try’n look back

He was there for you

He is there for you

And he will be there for you

This is dedicated to the hero, the mentor, the guide in everyone’s life. Some have their parents, some their teachers and some their friends but I am dedicating this to the hero of my life “God” because he is the only one always there for me, looking out for me, loving me, taking care of me, the one with whom I have always shared all my feelings.

I know many don’t believe in his presence but I can feel him all the time. I can feel his hands always on my shoulders holding me tight

Your face

Big eyes, naughty smile

Chin under the chin

With dimples to kill

Your face, my world

Curled lashes, lovely brows

Innocent tears, killer flare

Your face, my world

(C) Juz a Mum

Long hair, melting stare

Feelings so true, Love so rare

Your face, my world

Earnest grin, beaming ear to ear

Thousand looks, scuttling here to there

Your face, my world

Your face my world

Your hugs my heaven

Your kiss my bliss

Your words my books

Your eyes my dreams

Your touch my life

Your face my world

You...my life

My Rock

You stood by me and saw me rise

You were my earth, my wings

You held my hands and let me soar

You were my steps, my core

You walked with me to new heights

You were my guide, my light

You flew with me to the sky

You were my flight, my eyes

My Rock

I fell down,

You stood by me

You stood by me to see me drown

You stood by me and saw me sink

You stood by me and saw me fail

You stood by me and saw me fall

You stood by me and never picked me up

You chained me and pushed me down

My Rock

My bouffant beauty

To celebrate my love for you, for your heart clutched in mine

I take a vow, each little you in me will remain conserved

I will be a memoir your beauty deserved

I will freeze all the moments

And frame all the happenstance touches

Heirloom of our love,

Your perfection and my Imperfection

The Monologue of our winks

The dance of our grins

Everything that my heart observed, everything that my eyes saw

Will remain etched in my soul

The Oodles of your laughter, near the willow

The reserve of your tears, on the pillow

Osmosis you were, Punk I was

Beauty you were, Nerd I was

Now I stand near the riverbed of your mirage

See you saturate and camouflage

In a butterfly

With Singed brows I look at the sky

To see you soar and transfuse into nature

Your core transparent, devoid of any humor, without any whimsy.

I tiptoed to reach you, you were not there,

My extended hands returned empty
