LOVE

A universe is such a large thing, an almost endless expanse
All manner of wonders and miracles are brought to being
Stars that shoot across the sky, colourful milky ways
Wonders that cause laughter, smiles and a thousand feelings
Who could think that within all this beautiful chaos
There could be an era when her light would shine
A century of the existence where nothing else can compare
That like tonights sunset will eventually be lost in time
Allahs most wondrous and most beautiful sculpture
For like a bolt of lightning with a thousand volts she struck me
Paralysed by her eyes and I’m frozen like ice
For could there ever be anything in all creation as lovely
And she sits with her legs crossed on the chair
She laughs and her eyes light up like a chandelier
She leaves and I’m alone she’s no longer near me
But the thoughts of her however, will not disappear
And the cherry blossom blooms when she stands beside it
Its beauty withers when she leaves and cannot stand alone
Her lips call out silently to my heart without words
The feelings incomparable to anything that I have ever known
And I’m willing to protect and serve her like a knight
She is a queen of queens, a queen without a crown
She’s a peacock amongst Trafalgar squares pigeons
A Picasso amongst the grey buildings of London town
She is madness itself for such an illusion cannot be real

She is all of my being, she is all of my existence

She may be so far now in a desert spring but I can’t forget her

Every atom of existence cries for her no matter the distance
The universe centres around her smile
As do the tremors that shake me to my very core
So what else is there to do but to dream til my end
And become but dust happily upon her floor
The pain is ecstatic and the joy a burning
Like the sun and the moon became my all
Every thought is entwined with thoughts of her
And how her hair is like a jet black waterfall
When I dream of her it feels so real
And when I’m with her for real it feels like a dream
I tell myself I’m done promise myself to forget
But all attempts evaporate from me like rising steam
Like the big bang she smiled and a whole existence
Was brought to life like when a seed has split
And my heart is scattered all across her universe
She can keep every piece, every single little bit
As she walks towards me her huge smile smiling
The sun is like a spotlight shining down on her from above
The stars align a catwalk, the planets orbit her continuously
What is this duniya without such a love

Am I?

Am I such a fool,
Who only sees what he wants to see?
Who dreams impossible dreams,
But makes them seem a possibility?
Am I just a hopeless romantic?
Who is hopeless in my love for you?
And if you are nothing but a dream
I don’t want to wake and break my heart in two.

But I must force myself to do so,
Like an alarm in the morning forces me awake,
I can’t afford to oversleep for life must go on
And if that is a life without you then that’s my fate
And you gave me every sign that I stand no chance
But I can’t see for love is blind, so very blind,
Even if I quit this endless and hopeless road,
My heart will still fool itself into believing you’ll be mine.

And so I’m trapped in this endless cycle,
Bouncing from ecstatic hope to tormented sadness
I wish I could tell what you are thinking
I think about it so much it drives me to madness
I hate that when I look in your eyes I can’t read them
I love that when I look in your eyes I can’t read them
My mysterious dream that is so far out of reach
But I choose denial over logic and I keep on believing

I’m Falling

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling
Head spinning in the whirlpool of your eyes
All logic has been replaced with insanity
And I scream your name with silent cries
Where was I going in life I don’t remember
Everything I was I’ve replaced with my love for you
I’m falling unable to stop nor even care
For the hurricane of this storm I’m passing through

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling
Down a bottomless well and i don’t even care
What was the surface other than a bland normality
What is the point of it all if you aren’t there
Collapsing like towerblocks being demolished
Into rubble as is my sanity and state of mind
I used to see my future so clearly
Now I don’t want to open my eyes my love is so blind

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling
And no matter what I do I keep on falling
I look at the stars at night as if you are there
And towards the love of my life my heart is calling
Slipping like the sloped wet slate of a roof in rain
I can’t rise like the sun far away in the East every day
I have fallen so so deep in love with you I can’t think
I will continue to love you no matter what, come what may

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling
Like a shooting star falling through the sky
Burning and aching nonestop is my heart for you
With no understanding or care of any reason why
With the force of a meteorite is how I fell for you
Overcome with loves dizziness destroying all thought
My heart is yours to do with however you please
I’m trapped unable to escape the net of which I’m caught

I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling I’m falling
So deep is this hole that I’ve lost allhope of escape
I just dream of a thousand happy dreams
And a thousand times I feel my heart break
I’m swept up in a tornado of despair and ecstasy
Swirling with hope, guilt, shame, but love most of all
No matter how desperately I grasp at anything to hold
Nothing on this earth can break my fall

Your Name

You know you’re crazy about someone
When seeing them makes your heart shake with such a jolt,
But just merely seeing your name written
It feels like my heart’s been hit with a thunderbolt!

When I see it pop up upon my phone screen
That thunderbolt turns into a lightning storm,
Whatever I’m going through my heart starts pounding
And whatever my mood it rises like the sun at dawn.

Just seeing the places were we’ve hung out,
I picture you there still like you’re a ghost,
Like a refugee picturing his home across the vast ocean
Whilst sitting dreamily upon the coast.

Oh my gazelle the mere sound of your name
Believe me it distracts me completely from all else,
I so want to scream it out loud like a madman,
Only my pride manages to allow me to control myself.

A simple text message out of the blue
Makes me want to jump with such a joy I am feeling,
I read it critically like it’s a literary epic
And try to decifer its hidden meanings.

Just seeing your picture makes my day
And I smile by myself like a complete nutter.
You phone and I have so much I want to tell you
Then I hear your perfect voice and……I just stutter.

It’s You

Its you!
You are that feeling of infinite ecstasy,
Where joyful fanaticism has engulfed all logic,
And all else looses relevance with one text to me.

It’s you!
You are the worlds greatest distraction,
How does my mind always wander to your smile,
Your eyes or voice whenever I’m relaxing?

It’s you!
You are the very definition of loveliness,
Not a day goes by without my love sickness,
Completely encapsulating the very heart in my chest.

It’s you!
You are the very vision of beauty,
A portrait of perfection one look at your beautiful face
And I’m more bedazzled than by any sapphires or rubies.

It’s you!
You are the most beautiful and happy dream
A reality that may be impossibly out of reach
But I want to sleep for eternity when it’s you I’m seeing.

It’s you!
You are the most powerful force I’ve ever known,
How you can hypnotise me whenever you speak,
I am completely under your spell anytime you phone.

It’s you!
You are my hopeless sanity seeing defeat,
And your sparkling laughter destroyed all resistance,
I am completely at your will whenever we meet.

It’s you!
You are more than anything in my life that one
That makes my life be a constant festival of emotion
Oh how life is black and white when you’ve gone.

It’s you!
You are the most amazing woman I’ve ever met,
My love you will always be the love of my life,
A blessing that as the years go by I will never forget.

Still I

I can still dream, even without hope,
I am still holding on, even without a rope,
I am still fighting, climbing an endless slope,
Not knowing how to stop, but also how to cope.

I can still wish, even though the stars say otherwise,
I am still here, even if you put me down to size,
I am still in love, even if my heart dies,
I can’t help it, I’m gone with one look into your eyes.

I can still scheme, even if I overthink every variable,
I can still fight, even if the pain is unbearable,
I can still try, even if I must prepare to do
Every little thing that I can to let you know I’ll be there for you.

First Time

I wish I’d never told you how beautiful you are

None of the hundreds of times that I’ve told you that line

The hundred times I felt that you didn’t realise how true it was

A hundred times I wish I could tell you for the first time

How that your hair is so black, so wild and so perfect

That I’d never told you how much that I love your smile

Or how your eyes are the most beautiful thing that I’ve seen

I can take a break but I can’t help telling you every once in a while

Magic

I never believed in magic,
Until I met you and knew that it was true,
For how can there be any other explanation,
Than everything you do is magical.
How can you send bolts of electricity,
Througout me like a short burst of butterflies,
Making me freeze and tense up for a second,
With a single glance from your perfect eyes,

I know now magic must be true,
How can someone so perfect otherwise exist,
You took possession of my soul I’m now lost,
Without you, not just you but my whole heart is missed.
I’m under mind control completely brainwashed,
Seeing impossible illusions of us together how they taunt me,
You’ve woken spirits inside me I don’t recognise,
They tear me apart and constantly haunt me,

Oh sorceress of my heart,
I’m unable to escape from your unbreakable spell,
A spell where no words leave your lips,
It was enough to see them smile and I fell,
Love of my life, queen of my dreams,
I don’t care whether or not I’m trapped when you did curse me,
No antidote can free me from this magic,
Im but a slave to your will completely at your mercy!

Was

Was the sun made of shimmering gold
And were all the stars diamonds shining in the night sky,
They would still not be as precious
To me as it is having you in my life,
Was the moon made of silver,
And Saturn surrounded by a platinum ring,
I had enough wealth to cover jupiter with gems
Without you in my life it would not mean a thing.

Where all the deserts made of sugar,
And the oceans made of Greek honey,
It could never compare to you in sweetness,
Or ever come close to being as lovely,
Was the Nile made of golden syrup,
And Mangos were piled up as high as the himalayas,
You would still be my sweetheart my love
I couldn’t have dreamt of anything sweeter in all my prayers.

The sounds of the waterfall crashing down,
In such a furious but relaxing roar,
Pales in power to the sound of your voice,
For there is none more than you that I adore,
The sight of the sunset over London,
With its vast mural of colours,
Is nothing compared to that of your face,
You are perfect and next to you there is no other.

Hopeless Happiness

You can turn my rain into sun 
And turn my sun into rain 
Make me happier than I’ve ever been 
Or cause me the worse pain 

You can make unable to get up 
Leave me lying on the floor 
Or make me fly higher than ever 
Spread my wings and soar 

You are my rollercoaster 
You can make me rise and fall 
You can make or break my day 
With just one phone call 

You can make my heart go up and down 
That way you are my stairs 
You have my heart in your hand 
So please handle it with care 

I feel sorry for anyone 
Too scared to give in to their feelings 
I wouldn’t sacrifice the joy or pain 
I never want to stop dreaming 

I would never live in a comfort zone 
For how can one live life void of emotion 
When such a state is barely living 
I love being trapped in hopeless devotion
