Unfinished Love

They say stirred is better than shaken,

Is that so with emotions too?

Since you walked into that door,

I can’t say what I feel about you.

For a long time you lie low,

You tell your heart to never show, 

Then it erupts like a volcano,

Impossible to control , you glow

You shine like the sun,

You feel the warmth,

That heart is now in trouble,

Where do you start and where do you stop? 

You wake up startled, 

It felt real , yes it surely did, 

You look around and see,

You’re right where it all started.

It’s time to let go again,

This is the life you’ve chosen,

You tell your heart to calm down,

Till next time, it stays unspoken. 

Anam Cara

Soul mates they say,

Have a lifelong bond,

One that transcends distances,

One that goes beyond

Who are these soul mates

When are they born

Is it because their souls talk

Or is it because they’re forlorn

Do their bodies know this too

The chemistry they share 

One that doesn’t require touch

One that is so rare

Their eyes speak a language

Only known to them

That’s why you’re my Anam Cara

You’re that one true lifelong friend
