A knock once
 A knock twice
 on the closed doors
 of my heart
 a fear engulfed 
 hesistance  surfaced
 I  peeped out 
 your smile
 a radiance 
 that was warm
 embracing my cold skin
 your touch
a soothing balm
 careesing my scars
my heart opened up
still naive
unaware of half baked love
a boon & a bane 
that I carry within
 & I dared to love
love again
is it fun
is it pain
I ponder 
I still don't know
how to survive 
alone
a part of you 
is mine
I hope 
you remember
I hope 
you care


Love,
Chinmayee
