For You ....

I am the ambiguous twilight of the morning sun,
You are the personified glory of the scarlet dawn;

I am the onerous frustration of a sinned life,
You are the torch of solace, condoning my crimes;

I am the invertebrate demeanor of an inconclusive mind,
You are the cognition, evolved through the nemesis of time;

I am the reasons behind the up-roared nonsensical twaddle each time,
Your are the sense and significance behind reasons defined;

I am the recoiled torpor, amidst constant tiredness revived,
You are the blessing of concurrent inspiration to survive;

I am the uninitiated, unspoken silence of the night,
You are the grammar of my speech ever so refined;

I am the dead, buried in soil, waiting for my judgment denied,
You are the epitaph, commemorating my reasons for existence sufficed;

It hasn’t been always, that I had told you enough, but I hope you know,
You brought meaning to my life, long before it could be proclaimed sine die.

exquisite! the word play, the duality of emotions, and the assurance that there is someone out there who will always complete us. amazing bro.

This is absolutely outstanding Alok!

I love all the sets of verse yet am still drawn back to the first one:
'I am the ambiguous twilight of the morning sun,
You are the personified glory of the scarlet dawn;'...I love this so much - what beautiful wordplay to start a poem.

You brought out the sun and moon exchanging the desires and recognition oneself. You tamed it so well, how one gives in complete and the other rises in full form to comeout and show the ego of self and love with pride.

this is my favourite part of the poem. i like the duality of the nature of the couple.
