CRIMINAL BY DEFAULT

A year has elapsed, feelings have drowned,

Bone crushing to see, you were someone else’s song.

I was beginning to nurse of a life with you alone,

The moment you entered, hope was switched on.

Your intricacies inspired me to pen my thoughts down,

I had almost given up on love till you came along.

I still can’t decipher my adulation for your coy smile,

When I see you walking elegantly, I see us walking the aisle.

You are still my muse, the verses in my folk song,

Can a kiss seal the trick, with me would you tag along?

Though I have been a thief, I gazed at you unannounced,

I stole the moments when your breathed life for so long.

Te Amo, you are my poetry, my swansong,

Without you even the rainbow seems devoid of vibgyor.

Yes, I didn’t have your consent to love you for so long,

The blame resides in your beauty, I was a criminal by default.

As I continue to adore you and inscribe in my songs,

You made my love beautiful; someday hold me and come along.
