*********************
When I am in wilderness
You come with hand full of ideas
That calm me in calories
and stand valiant ahead of me
When I move in crowds
You stand aside lonely
Winking at me loosing all proteins
and discourage me in all stances
I am to still to learn more
about the nutritional facts of love
to keep me abreast of updated health tips
As long as my thoughts are not dilapidated
i don't look at you as a mirror of my hopes
As long as my opinions are not flabby and feeble
I desire to glance you as a fortune teller
with apt future predictions
and due apologitic in present columns
Light and dark shades make the sky romantic
Delight and defiance make the life aromatic
Waves and weaves make the sea ascetic
Words and phrases make the love poetic
making me illustratively yours forever
