I Dont Know

I forget
these things
and those too

Loving me is
like being on
first date forever
for i need to be
told everytime.
There is nothing
i d take for granted
and feel blessed
for all the tenderness
coming my way.

But loving you
oh! my God
is like being held steadfast.
The way you behold is
continous and perennial.
Thats how love pours
out of you
and i flow.

I always thought
you are my sea
my ocean
my destiny
but now i know
i flow out of you,
my centre
my source.

No wonder
just around you
I am bouncy and chirpy
but with a little distance
i start meandering
and flooding my plains
and go quiet
with whirlpools in my feet.

And just then
you arrive in your chariot
of seven horses
to gather me again
in your arms
and celebrate me
with all aplomb
as I evaporate.
