Love for me is ‘he’
I went every level for his bliss.
But now I expect nothing
As he don't even have time to miss.
I gave up knowing, he won't reciprocate
& all I learnt, is how to wait…
Relationships need time
& effective communication.
Its not only my view
it's everyone’s suggestion.
All I heard is “I am busy…”, Great!!!
& all I learnt, is how to wait…
We don't need to talk whole day long
But when I was shattered, I strongly needed.
But you have no time for me,
No matter how much I pleaded.
Then our conversation turned into debate,
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
You never share your problems
& blame me that I don't understand.
I don't even know,
“In your life - Where do I stand?”
I often ask,
“What you are upto, tell me straight”
but all I learnt is, how to wait…
You are the moon of my life
surrounded by stars.
And I being night-blooming-jasmine
fighting alone - “An Internal War”.
Still, I try, hard to motivate
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
When I try to dress your wound,
I end up hurting myself.
Still I always text you first
Keeping aside my esteemed self.
But to strengthen the thread between us,
I always put an extra plait.
I always put an extra plait.
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
Yes, its true, I fell for you
but I don't know - why?
I feel, “I mean nothing to you”
when you remain online & don't reply.
I feel like,
You have closed all the windows & the gate.
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
I've got many ‘red cross’ in my class test.
But your blue ticks gave more pain.
Like a barren desert,
Waiting for the rain.
Many nights, I didn't even touch the plate
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
Tears come out
looking at your ‘last seen’.
Its the most helpless situation,
I had ever been.
Travelling alone in a ship through love-strait.
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
No matter how much differences
come in our way.
I am still planning a surprise
& a present for your birth-day.
I remember,
Its day number 26, month number - Eight
& all I learnt is, how to wait…
When you cut my phone calls, all I did was
to look at your picture & cry
I always ask myself :
Why can't I ignore him? Why???
To Krishna’s Gopi, I could relate,
When my phone rings, why I wish
the screen to flash your name?
I always became sad,
for the call, which never came.
You know what,
Your single “good night” text has a power to elate.
but all I learnt is, how to wait…
You don't stay longer,
in my dreams too…
Why don't you feel for me
like the way, I do?
Hope we talk soon, before its too late
As I have learnt now
“How To Wait”
