To Jay

Happy birthday to my dearest friend

Ups and downs, we're together till the end,

I may be late but you're never far from my mind,

We've both turned into adults, living busy lives,

Different time zones but we're still the same,

Different hemispheres, yet nothing changed,

We're getting older and colder, sometimes wiser,

Like stopping drinks-smokes even in winters,

A birthday near Valentine, and you already know love,

A profound love from all your best and closest, your near and dear ones,

So happy birthday to you, my most sincere one,

We're shit to each other but what the heck,

*Bros over hoes* and *chicks over dicks*,

Our mottos' the same, friends till the end.

Untitled #19 - Musings

'A new year, a new start'
That's what everyone thinks,
But with the second year almost up
I'm grateful we've stayed.

I'm grateful for your existence
And how you're the thunder to my storm,
I'm comforted with the thought
At the end of the day, you'd be home.

It's funny how you're still persistent
About tucking me into your armpit
(That too without a bath after baDminTon)
And how my olfactory senses don't care;

I'm amazed we're still a "cuddly-sleepy" couple
And that you're still my muse and flare,
And with every birthday of yours that passes by
I hope we're only reminded of growing love;

Because right now, alone on our bed,
My eyes miss the outline of your figure in bed,
My ears miss the sound of your laugh,
My skin misses the scratch-scratch of your body,
My arms miss holding you and my leg misses yours
(She likes being on top)

And the whole bed, the room,
The entire apartment -
They all seem so empty;
It's no longer home without you.

A birthday dedication to someone special.

Happy Birthday - to that someone.

We have our differences -
You won't speak,
I'll be rude,
Too straightforward,
And you anger too soon.
Many little problems,
Little things left unsaid.
Acting like a mother out of care,
Acting like a teenager in despair,
It's both of us and we leave it unsaid.
Maybe we aren't what we used to be,
Maybe not so much close as once was,
Maybe we went away and in between
Even became strangers for a while.
But we're still here,
Still in each other's life,
A pain-in-the-ass,
Yet hopefully a lovable one -
Come whatever may,
If you need a last resort,
It's there.
I'm here, I got your back,
Just as I know you have mine.

Love you.

Happy birthday :)
