This is a poem that I wrote as a birthday gift for someone, I was in love with.
There's a lot that I want to tell you
But let me first wish a very very happy birthday to you.

Yes I want to tell you how much I love you
But I don't wanna write
Much like, being very hungry
But denying to take a bite.

Every morning I see you board the bus
With eyes so sleepy you still look so glorious
When I just close my eyes and wonder
If you and me could someday become "us".

You think I don't know you yet,
But that is just not true, I can bet.
I just can't hate you ever
Willing to die for you instead
By being the fish in your fishing net.

How do I measure my perpetual love for you?
Now that I have tried everything I knew
But even in those attempts so futile
There is no stopping,
Like the furious Teesta flowing downhill.

You make me wonder how could someone be so perfect?
It's because of you the fragments of this broken heart are so intact
Only after I met you in my dreams, though you won't believe
But you are a far better person than I am, please acknowledge this fact.

You took care of things like a selfless nurse
I still remember how you came into my life
Made me smile when things were getting worse
And you cured me of my sufferings, the Cupid's curse.
Looking secretly at you engaged in those silent murmurs
I keep telling them, "There can't be a smile as elegant as hers."

I want to teach life how to behave
Such that you are the master and happiness your slave
And on this birthday of yours, I'll be a knave
I'll wish you the entire world's happiness.
Even my share of merriment for you I'll save
Only then I'll enjoy peace in that life, life beyond the grave.

It's your generosity when you say you owe me a lot
But instead it's you, with whom all the 'memories' I've got.
I know you won't agree, so just go and ask the lord
And even he'll answer,
"Of all the people that I created, you are the best of the lot."

What I can only hate is, you in the heat and me in the shade
And all I'll love is to cry with you if ever a tear you shed
I would even love to be the night had you been the day
Because they are inseparable, so close and yet so far away.

I just get drowned in those eyes
To listen to everything they have to say
Don't know why they are just special
Special in their very own way.

I dream to live in those eyes forever
for there can't be a soothing feeling any better
Not to change the way you look at things
But to walk with you however rough would be the weather
Because it's you who makes me think about forever.

I want you to be the one sitting by my side
When on some isolated island, from the world we'll hide
Sitting and watching those waves come and go by
We'll walk, run, play, laugh and cry
To be the soothing showers of rain in those seasons dry.

All around your heart a wall you've been building
To hide your feelings, and from the pain you want a little bit of shielding.
I want to be the antidote to the venom so killing
So that you could live it all about which you have been dreaming
To see you surrounded by happiness all real
As real as this surreal world continuously spinning
That's when I would believe that this life was worth living.
