Buoy Poem by Ashwin Alex

Sometimes i feel like am chasing de wind wen m thinkin abt you,
my mind says no they ve learnt to live a play in which i don ve a role.
Inspite of de sinking feelins, my heart is waging a war wit my brain.
How i wish if my heart could win the battle defeating mighty brain
an all its haughty neurons wit jus my stupid heart and lowly love eternal.

Many a times i succumb to de mighty one, but wen m abt to break,
will u be der to tend to my brokeness?
Like reinforcement to concrete, like fishplates to rails, like fibres in composites.
Can i bank upon you?

My life has always been like a buoy in troubled waters,
though i cant reach de shore, each time i get hit,
my wails help someone to reach beyond de troubles.
Though i want to be ashore my pains fade away wen i see you.
I hate to have u by my side in troubles only cos you deserve not them.

Such a lovely one thou shouldst smile, cos
gr8r is my luv than de affection of de greatest trouble to myself.
