My Reason To Live Poem by Jaishree Nair

You are the breath of my life
with fragrance that fills my heart
with the fuel to journey
through the labyrinth of life...

Your shadow behind my every step
fills me with the fire to move forward...
The jingling of your bangles at night
lulls me to a dream of sleep sweet...

Your golden locks - soft and cascading
urges me to run my hands through it...
Your dancing pools of mystery
invites me to drown in its fathomless depth...

The thought of you waiting
at the doorstep with a smile inviting
makes me eager to reach home...

How I love to tease you
just to see the faint tinge of colour
creeping up to redden your cheeks
with shyness cute...

My other half, my staff, my best friend...
My very essence of life...
My reason to live...!
