Soulmates

True love 

is soul's recognition of its counterpart in another...

I reiterated 

the cheesy lines from a Hollywood pic to him.

One thing I know, 

he said,
the hardest thing is to love, 

to be loved 

and to be always in love...

No matter how hard, 

thought I, 

isn't love and its recognition

the only thing which the soul craves for 

and makes it complete?

Fly Me Back to the State of Dreamlessness

Fly me back to the state of dreamlessness,

where nothing exists 

but heavy emptiness;
where sleep demands no dreaming
and wakefulness expects 

just daily fulfillment
of chores and other errands...

Fly me back to the state of dreamlessness,
Where loneliness is just a state of mind,

and creativity not demanded;
where one is not tormented 

by desires or expectations
but just the daily fulfillment
of chores and other errands...
