Uncertainty

The tides come over and sweep off the shore as I wait for you . You are here, by my side, I know. But I am waiting for you to hold my careless emotions as I spill and bleed my love out for you. Smile, for me, like you do. But smile someday maybe, when you know that you feel for me too?

Hold my hand sometimes, may be, beyond how adrenaline pulls you through rough nights? Can't you love me a little tender? Because you are the storm I've been preparing to face since a long time. But I have waited for you too long. Because the life you carry around with you and the way you wear your reckless heart on your sleeve makes me want to walk all the way holding your hand. I am just too fragile. Too much, to demarcate between what my body needs and what gives me butterflies in my stomach. All I know is that I am fiercely loving you in that moment, when your lips are on mine. There's no line in that love that tells apart friendship and love and soulmates . I am already thinking of everything with you. What would you call that kind of love?

All I can ask for at the end of the day from you is to be a little gentle when you break my heart. I have waited for you too long. And I can't see you denying me the love I crave in the blink of an eye.
