If I Love You

If I love you

I will be a cloud

A cottony white cloud

Amidst the limitless sky

Full of love

Of flowers and rainbows

Of praises and silences

Hovering above you

Showering the optimum amount of everything

As and when you need

[with some extra love every day].

If I love you

I have already written around

Fifty poems and five stories

[or more]

Embracing everything

I could tell about you-

That how your eyes gleam brown

Under the sun-kissed sky

Reflecting the woods behind

Where we sit together

Undressing our truths one-by-one

Uniting into a soul.

That how your voice is a soothing symphony

Among the room full of

Banging voices

Of screams

And blabbers

I hear a lot

But I listen to you speaking of softness

Of smiles and us

And it makes me rest.

That how you are a woman carrying

A million stars

Put together for you to travel the world

And your skin stitched together

With courage and wings

With laughter and abilities

With dreams and optimism

There will be uncountable letters

Written to you

Inside the folder

Inside you.

If I love you

Your periods will be of

Ice creams and roasted almonds

Full tight sleep in my lap

While I caress your back

And hold your hand

Filling you up with warmth

And my eyes fixated

At that gentle smile

And on nights when love has to speak

A different language

I'll remind you about

All your body parts

You forgot about

They will smile like you when

I will trace them down.

If I love you

You will have to bear with a singer

Who is awful

Yet shameless of singing

[rather destroying]

Your favorite compositions

[or any song that exists]

You will be receiving

Daily unfiltered confessions of love

There will be honest conversations

Understandable silences

And a heart for you to breathe freely.

If I love you

[which I do]

There will be a future

I'm spending with you.
