Is That You? Poem by Rupika Alekhya

Is there someone I can call mine?

Is that you standing in the night,
Far far away?

With that-
Velvety hair,
Quizzical eyes,
Divine lips and
Slow curved smile.

Pulling me in like gravity
Are you the one that's mine?

Mine to escape to,
Mine to live with,
Mine to die for,
Mine to hug,
Mine to love,
Mine to hate,
Mine to cry for,
Mine to fight with,
Mine to smile with!

Is that you?
Coming close
Melting the distance betwixt
And whisking my fears away.

Is that you?
Is that you?
Walking in
Like I'm yours!

Is that you, love?
Is that you?
