The Imaginary Crush!

  The Imaginary Crush!

As my eye lashes hugged each other,

unable to stay away any longer,

I stepped into a new world

and my restless eyes felt something special.

Easing away my anxiety,

I looked up to see the visual wonder!

Enchanted by your beauty in my dreams,

I followed your footsteps

and I found myself in a place

no man could have ever imagined!

My tired limbs were refusing to move

and my poor eyes were so desperate

to spot the visual wonder once more.

         As I was looking as far as I could see,

        I saw an angel,

       with all the heavenly glow,

       walking towards me, tearing apart

       the darkness with her radiance.

      The place was all illuminated

      with the rays of her beauty

      and as she inched closer,

      my eyes became motionless looking

      at her magnificent eyes

      that cast a spell on me!

     The lips, that were separating

     to flash a gorgeous smile,

    made me skip many a beat

    and I wondered how I still survived!

Awed by your beauty,

I forgot that it was you.

My eyes went out of control

every time they spotted you

and enjoying a visual treat,

I drowned in the ocean of happiness,

hoping that it would last forever!
Every syllable that you uttered
echoed in my ears as loud as possible
and every step that you took
left an impression that refused to fade with time. 

The chant of your name was good enough

to send waves of excitement down my body

and the sight of you made my mouth go dumb

while my heart could never resist praising your beauty.

         My thoughts didn't know 

          when they should stop carrying you

          and my heart couldn't find

          a way of forgetting you!

         No matter how many times I saw you,

         my eyes always try to sneak a look

         of  your scintillating smile

         and in no time,

         goosebumps make me feel their presence.

The sheer joy of watching every bit of you

fills my heart with happiness up to the brim

and the more I see you,

the more I like you!

As words fail to express my liking towards you,

I wonder if I can ever let you know

that the crush on you is crushing me inside!

   Nevertheless, I keep trying to reach you

and the closer, I think, I am to you,

the farther you go leaving me bereft

and I realise that you are 

like a mirage that never existed

but offered me heaps of memories 

to carry down the memory lane

and having realised that

I am too good to fall prey to these false attractions,

I MOVED ON!
