Bitter Sweet Love

Though I am bad at it but I do try
To restrain my eager heart when my lover is nigh
But with the wink of her one eye I am killed
Silly words come out, not spoken but spilled.

Sometimes I wonder whether she likes to tease
By waving her hair and laughing like a cool breeze
Then watching me, whether I noticed it
And I always do, as much as politness would permit.

Always her nosy friends surround her
If only they were much less around her
I would have at least tried to advance
To tell her that she is my first and last romance.

Maybe she enjoys the game more than the finish
Maybe in the sea of love she is the tough fish
But I'll catch her one day or the other
She possibly can't ignore my attempts one after another.

I watch her everyday in the same routine
At the bus stop, in the library and the canteen
All the times she is so close yet I can't talk
The distance is so small yet I can't walk.

I have never felt so miserable, its just too much pain
But this is one misery I would like to go through again and again
This love is silly yet a wonderful experience
Fragile like the flame of a lamp yet so intense.

All her giggling when I am around makes me feel significant
And I just feel like holding her hands but somehow I can't
Why do you burn me wretched love, I want her to know
That she soothes me when you burn, and eases my pain and woe.

That's it no more Mr. Nice Guy, Mr. Cupid
You struck me with the arrow and I'm not stupid
I'll go to her now and pour out my heart
Then she'll do what she has to, I know she is smart.

Maybe she also loved me all this time
And only as per the tradition, I had to breach the line
But if she didn't, my heart will break
I wish she sees my love, I know it isn't fake.
