Finally Loved Poem by Sneha Murali

A 20 year old dilapidated heart, in the process of decomposition,
saved by a ball of light from heaven.
Even as hordes of angels sat witness.
I know not how, I can repay my debt, for saving me and my soul inept.
As the world is drawn into a dark black hole,
I hover, separate, individual,
while my heart turns to coal.
In a faint aura, luminous and lurid, I see the reflection of the past,
and sense the refraction of the future. Would it last?
The future I mean. It would powder to dust, is what I had seen.
As in any case of dark versus light, it was me versus you.
And as in any case of light triumphing darkness,
it was your victory over my heart.
Things have never been same, since I've found solace in your name.
I would remain nonexistent, if not for your wings to seek shelter in.

In 20 years of burning out in the open,
I finally found refuge in a friend, in you, and that to the best.
How is it that I still deserve you? How is it that you still want me?
You deserve the purple heart,
for pursuing my redundant belligerence and imperfections.
I am a lunatic, stuck in a dream world of ludicrousness and fluff.
And you are my dream, stuck in my head, a beautiful mellifluous harmony.
You are my luminary, saving me from constant meltdowns.
I owe you everything, and my constant disproportion and retribution can be revoked and put to rest.
My ethereal self can finally be trusted
and put in your hands for safe keep,
and rest in peace knowing you will always love me.
No poem is complete without the words- 'love' & 'you'.
You make me want to b a better person, strong, deserving, and perfect.
I love you for loving me as much as you do.
By forever, I mean immune against everything.
By forever, I mean infinite universes and collisions can never break us.
By forever, I mean impalpable, intangible, forever and ever and ever.
I love you.
