The Strength She Seeks

In shadows of doubt, some men may hide,

Clinging to weakness, their fears amplified.

But she seeks not a soul so easily swayed,

Rather one who stands tall, unafraid.

Masculinity - not bravado or might,

But quiet assurance that weathers the night.

Emotional fortitude, a steady hand,

A rock amid storms that sweep the land.

Not absent of feeling, but master of heart,

Vulnerability balanced, strength set apart.

She respects the man who knows his worth,

Grounded and certain as the enduring earth.

Neediness repels, a desperate grasp,

While confidence draws her, a willing clasp.

In the dance of love and life's long road,

She chooses the partner who bears his own load.

So stand tall, be steadfast, yet gentle and true,

For in your strength, she finds herself too.

A man secure needs not to prove,

And in that surety, her heart may move.

This hit hard.

उसने मुझे सीने से लगाया और मेरी आंखों से प्यार शहद की तरह गिरने लगा ।

पता नहीं वो उसकी सुनहरी हसी थी, या उसके होटों की छुअन।

हमरी उंगलियां उलझी सी, या वो मस्तानी शाम में हम मगन।

"ऐसे क्या देख रही हो?" वो कहता। वक्त थम सा गया।

मैंने सिर्फ मौकुराया, और मेरी आंखों से प्यार शहद की तरह गिरने लगा।

Hello love,

You, are like the first ray of sunshine after a stormy day,

bringing all the warmth as you come along.

I don't know what my life would've been like without you!

We go together like;

A wink and a smile,

Like sugar and spice,

Like the pieces of a jigsaw,

And Atlas and Lily!

You complete me, darling.

I am so grateful for having you in my life.

I want to give you all of my love.

I want to roam around the globe, holding you.

I want to stick by you through all

The highs and the lows,

Happiness and sorrows,

Laughters and tears.

I want you to know that I love you so much!

I want to treat you like you've never been treated before.

I want you to know that you're the best, sweetheart.

I want to lay down the world at your feet.

I want to write poetry all over your body.

I want to decorate you with all the words that I have.

I want you to know how it feels on being a poet's muse.

I try to make something beautiful of my pain, but sometimes I just have to sit with it. Sometimes all you can do is sit with it.

Sometimes I just want to run away from this life.
