Where do I live?

i live between those words

curled beneath time

and the weight of your existence.

i live between those sounds

shadowed by the past

and the chaos of meaninglessness.

i live between those forms

that rests on my body

between bedsheets and emptiness.

i live between those sighs

buried under the everyday smile

of monotony and speechlessness.

i live between those nightmares

of a pleasant day gone wrong

maybe coz you were trying to be selfless.

i live between those eyes

that burns

every time it witnesses a piece of my madness.

i live between those breaths

that inspires me to stay

and be true to my senses.

i live between us

the us of you and me

and everything else that defines and measures.

(dedicated to all the women in my life)
