"Where You Are"
I miss the quiet in your eyes,
The way the world just softens there.
No words — just breath and sighs,
A touch that tells me someone cares.
The space between us stretches thin,
Like stars pulled tight across the dark,
And still I feel you deep within,
Like echo, heat, or faded spark.
No screen can hold your laughing face,
No call can match your hand in mine.
I crave the nearness, crave the place
Where silence hums and hearts align.
You live in me — in soul, in sin,
In every beat, beneath my skin.
In whispered dreams and silent ache,
In all I give, in all you take.
So until distance learns to break,
I’ll hold you in each breath I take.
And if I fall, I fall to you —
In every shade, in every hue.

I love writing as I get to create something beautiful and touch others with my words in the process. I love the fact that I can create a whole new world, something no one else has ever seen. Writing helps me to escape reality and create new realities. At times, I also write stuff in those stories that I can never muster the courage to say in real life. It's my safe space. I can write whatever I am feeling and I can let it all out. It's also very therapeutic to me..
