A feet to close, A feet afar.

I sit here
So close
To the burning coal.
It's closer to me
Than I'm to you.
I cannot touch it.
I cannot touch you.
Yet I so want
To touch this.
This burning desire
This charcoal red.
It would burn me
It would destroy you.
Should I yet let you burn?
Do I watch you in pain?
Tell me innocent love.
Do I get to hurt you?
And still be
able to sleep
On those lonely night?
Maybe this is selfish.
Yes this is selfish.
I'm being selfish here.
For you love.
This is new to you.
This path smiles at me.
You're too innocent
To be hurt
To go through this.

Remember!
At all our pauses
I did not want
A thing more
Than your
Uncertain smile.

Violet you.

Violet you.
You rained, upon us few.
Violating new and old,
laws to renew.

Violet you.
The blue black silver gray you.
The confused colors in two.
The miscible colors in you.

Violet you.
Wanting little things you.
Looking away when new.
Looking into me, you.

Violet you.
I want you.
Not the black silver blue.
As the Violet you.

Timeless love.

So what if,
You could teleport
And I were a time traveler.
Would we meet again
As we did today.
In this empty street
Here in this cafe.
Cause destinies to twine
In your future, not mine?
Set a place in time.
Let the variables combine?
Would you wait then,
A couple of years?
Remember,
The hope in these tears.
Would you wait in my past.
Would I wait for your future?
That coffee be too cold
when you get there
That day you be old
While I wait there.
You would have seen too many
I would have been so many.
We'd love through time.
Across your days and mine.
When we do meet at the bend.
At the very end.

You.

You're everything I've ever wanted.
Not the past you. Nor the future you.
You in the present.
You in my arms right now. You in my thoughts. And you in my lazy weekend afternoons.
You in your freckled skin. And You in our playful sin.

Let us and not.

Let's do odd things
Things that don't matter
To another than you
Let's climb a wall
Just to know you can
Build one higher
Let's stay still
On a busy street
A railway platform
Create a slower world
Let's stop talking
For a day
To oneself
Let us not die
Not today
Not till the rest are buried.
Let's quit fighting
For nothing and something
For the invisible desires
And the visible faces
Let's travel
To travel and not reach
To reach and not stop
To stop and never settle
To settle and not move
Let's stop dreaming
But not wake up
Let us sleep
With not any dreams.
Let us be
And let us not.

I to you.

Let it be something
Give it no name
Let it mean nothing
While meaning the same

Let it take a day
Have it make it's way
Let it take a week
Let it make us weak

Let it into our lives
Let it control our hives
Let it speak it's tongue
On our bodies so young

Let it want
Give in to it's wants
Let it breathe
Through our skin beneath

Try not to stop
Let it reach atop
Try not to contain
Let it not die in pain

Be weak;
Give in;
Crumble;
Succumb,
To it.
To I.
To You.
To Us.

Reboot.

At peace. At a place. Not so far from my place. But closer, enough to be insignificant. Sitting on a bench. Cool evening breeze. Bats flying. Runners running. Dogs barking. And I'm listening.
My mind seems to be clear today. I have no conviction of doubt's existence. My thoughts are free. My thinking still. My mind is at the present. At this park. On this phone. Noting down these things I see. I'm not bothered by the past now. I'm not worried about the future.. I am like the shadow that exists only under this particular light. The present is light. The light fading in the present.
Old men walking along a triangular path. My bench is on one of its sides. They greet each other. They miss me. I miss me.
I have been away. Away from myself. It's time to come back now. Go back.
