Nupur Chaturvedi

In the instant that I turn
My eyes hit the light you exude
I am blinded by your brilliance 
And look down 
To trace the shape of my shadows
Blurred at the edges now
Because I brought a cloud between us
Why do you stand there
Enveloped in your aura
Staring at me with guilting eyes?
Do you not know that the earth will move
And we will be in different hemispheres again?
Why do you insist on beaming neon thoughts
That stir the neurons in my head?
I am losing sight, you know,
And the least you can do is soothe my fired senses.
It’s time. 
We need to diffuse.
We need to bring back the cool coziness
That defined our early days.
We need the rain. 
To shine.
