To My Heart

To My Heart

Tulip Chowdhury

Love has no colours, no shapes
Sizes or definitions,
Love is nothing
Love is everything,
Love is just YOU.

Love is foolish
Love is craziness,
It's total madness
Of a delicious kind.

Love is your absence
Love is your presence,
It is pain in passion
It is bliss in kisses.
Love does not speak
Does not sing or paint,

It hangs invisible
It is souls entwined.
Love is miracle,

 

Just Wanted  To  Cry

Door closed, windows shut
blinds drawn,
all quiet, though afternoon
it seems like new moon.

Wakes that demon inside
serpents wrapped around,
bitterness, anguish
anger, frustration
love gone bitter,
no, no, nothing is right.

Don't show me reasons
I see none, I'm okay
in my streaming tears,
why can't I shed enough
to empty this soul
to rid of these burdens?

Tears that I have shed
what do they hold?
Were they not enough?
More and more
they come, exhale grief'
grief inhale.

Ah, mirror
don't reflect this face
contoured with anguish
swollen eyes,
mouth so ugly
with silent screams!

So many calls
so many songs
yet I sit tight
howling inside
let me cry a little more
a little more.
