Let us ruin our lives together.

Let us go for a walk to the beach one evening.
With bare feet and folded jeans,
we would walk hand in hand on slippery sand.
We would lock our eyes every now and then
and forget that a world exists behind our back.

For many days and many nights,
I've tried very hard to forget you.
If this is what it takes for peace,
I'd rather say that we play in hands of destiny
and let it ruin our lives till eternity.

My fountain pen.

One fine morning I woke up to find your empty case,
I feared I must have lost you in haste,
But then you reappeared from the drier
Like Sita who stood the test of fire.

My companion for the worst times and the best,
I swear that I would keep you close to my chest,
You immortalize my words on paper white,
And judge me not on what I write.


PS: I by mistake put my pen in a drier.
