Oh My Darling, You Look Wonderful Tonight...

How will I know?
I am in Love...

Is it Peaceful as a Dove,
            Or 
A feeling of Heaven above...

Heart beats and pumps Blood,
Why is it said?
Its place where blooms a Love Bud...

Hippocampus regulates emotional activity,
When a HEART breaks,
Why is it called Insanity?

Battle of Mind and Heart,
How will the Love stay ever apart?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I dream of you every night,
Its You,
who made my Life bright...

Drowning in Loneliness,
Its You,
who broke the Darkness...

Waited for you so long,
Its You,
I belong...

Despair,Forsaken,Melancholy,
You 
sang the Love melody...

You make me Smile,
You make me Cry,
A kiss on my eyes,
makes the sadness to say Goodbye...

Rendezvous under moonlit starry sky,
 I Clad in a saree,
Coz, You said once,
"I'll marry,
only if you wear saree"

Awestruck as you bend on knees,
& asked,
"Will you dance with me? Please"

Arms around my waist,
Mine around your neck,
Forgot everything rest...

Swaying along soothing music,
Close to you at that moment,
That moment of magic...

And then I asked you,
"Do I look alright?"
And you said,
*"Oh My Darling, You Look Wonderful Tonight..."

Do I Deserve This?
This Ultimate Bliss!

Captured my Heart,
Touched my Soul,
saying,
"I love you just the way you are..."

Tear fell on my cheek,
No words I could speak,
Silence spoke more than words,
Coz,
"Something's are best understood,
when they are not said,
Only felt..."

I dream of you every night,
I don't believe in Love At First Sight,
But,
If I meet you,
What if I just might...

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am not even close to what its called as "Hopeless Romantic", but I do believe in Love. Even as Science explains that our emotions are regulated by our brain, How can I ever say someone, "I love you with all my Hippocampus"...NEVER!
It is an Eternal feeling when we say, "I Love You wholeheartedly..."


Happy Valentines Day...Lots of Love :)

    The best lines of all of them.

    We all believe in love, in some form or other. If I'd love someone, I'd tell her that I love her with a mutual understanding between my mind, reason and heart.

    But I could be tempted to say that strong impulses from somewhere my hypothalamus and travel all the way down through medula oblongata and spine to give me shivers. :P

  5. Love can make you ascend,
    raise you to to new heights,
    it can help you all along,
    in your sublime flight.
    But, just the opposite,
    it can do, it might.

  10. @Sayak...Love can raise to new height,
    and help in sublime flight,
    It also gives strength to fight,
    No need to fright
    Yes it surely might :)

    @sushant jain...Be Happy as a single...Thanks :)

    @m7...Thanks a lot...I have added link to the word Hippocampus...its the area which controls our emotions ...Hypothalamus does too but it has other major functions

  14. Hmmmm... when I think the word "LOVE"

    I think the word "YOU"

    Tears, smiles, a warmth beneath the eyelids,
    the desire to look at the sky, the desire to drench in the rain,

    the desire to sit with folded hands, gazing at God's eyes and praying for every one I know, who has a problem,

    looking at the mirror and smiling when the mirror looks beautiful....

    All this is "YOU"

    Love is a perennial celebration regardless of whether we have someone else with us or not.

    You have written beautifully dear, and your dream is beautiful. I pray when it happens for you, it has a similar setting only more beautiful.
    God bless you :)

  18. the ending is just awesome, the person is only a imagination, imagination so beautiful, that if he/she comes along, one can never overlook & just fall in love - at the first sight,

    A kiss on my eyes,
    makes the sadness to say Goodbye...

    i liked these lines the most, very romantic post, nicely written.

  19. so Poonam, do you believe in 'love at first sight' now?? I thought I'd check this with you. what if you have met that person now...if you just have....[oh the ending of the poem was just so great!)

    rendezvous under moonlit starry sky - perfect! And you call yourself nowhere close to the boundaries of hopless romanticism even huh?
