She

a poem by Sidharth Kumar

Not near was she
Not far was she
But wherever was she
Close to my heart was she

More sweet than rose was she
More than friend was she
Running in my veins was she
Rarest gem was she

Making me enamor was she
My world map was she
A blue dream was she
A deep sea to swim was she

Shiny than the sun was she
Swinging in the clouds of my dreams was she
Teaching me to love was she
Tuning me into a man was she

Above the gods was she
Aerial swift bird was she
Wiping my thick tears was she
Wooing to be my wife was she

One day in newspapers was she
Off to a deep sleep was she
With the last chapter of my love was she
What a gal was she…
