you are in love

When you feel that not enough air is left to breathe out



But still you round the mouth to chase out the sigh at his sight


You know you are in love.


When he is sitting beside and allowed to stare at your being


And you have no words to converse with him


You know you are in love.
When you come back home and lie down


And stress on the things you said and the ones you didn’t


You know you are in love.


When he comes and you start looking around


To fool him that you don’t steal his thoughts


You know you are in love.


With every doorbell and din of bikes


The heart propels with the beats at knolls and dells


You know you are in love.


When you dream of him in the custody of your heart


And wake up with a big smile on your face


You know you are in love.


When at every pleasant event you think of him


And at every ominous call, you pray for him


You know you are in love.


When in ennui you just want to remember the moments together


And close your eyes to make a wish


You know you are in love.



On a day when everything seems to go wrong,


You forget all your worries once in his arms…


You know you are in love.


When during a serious fight


You smile by mistake


You know you are in love.


When every step he takes has a consequence upon your being, and,


His thoughts define your every move


You know you are in love


When his smile just brightens up your life


And a speck of gloominess on his face makes you feel inert


You know you are in love


When he’s not there but his frangrance lingers


And his tender touch gives you heebie – jeebies


You know you are in love


When his tears fall onto your cheeks


And your heart breaks apart


You know you are in love



When tease of friends and hoots aloud


Makes you proud to have him around


You know you are in love.


When the game is on in the eyes


And gooseflesh deeper in the nerves


You know you are in love.


When he scolds and shuts the lips


And you follow without any say


You know you are in love.

When there is something he needs to know,


no matter where he chooses to go .


you say “you are a part of me


cause you are the root and I am the tree”


You know you are in love.
