Close

by Aparna Chatterjee

As the day
Draws to a close
I realise....
My thoughts about you
Are always open, they
Never close

No wonder,
I always find you
So close....

This closeness

Makes me happy

Whenever I'm

Morose

If you are

The thorn

I'm the rose

Protecting me

By staying close

As long as I live

You'll be always

With me for all

The shows, this

World knows....

For if you are

My poetry, I'm

Your prose....

In our thoughts

And feelings, in

Our highs and lows

Amongst the many

You I chose, for in

You I find my love

And repose, when

In your arms, me

You enclose, I feel

Safe from life's throes
