I had a dream, I kept going back to it.
The place where it felt like Home.
Yet I have never been there.
I had a dream, I saw You in it.
Yet I did not know you.
I kept going back in loops,
You kept calling my name.
Yet, the name was unfamiliar.
But why did it feel like mine?
I had a dream, I was finally happy.
Then,
I woke up.
~ Suranya
I was searching for you.
In every person I met,
Every character I read,
Every dream I had.
I found you nowhere.
Near or far, I kept looking,
Not ready to give up.
Then one day,
I came across a mirror
And realised
I had forgotten to search within me.
Where you truly belong.

A dream of dreams, she stood by the shore.
The water of the waves, washing up her feet
Coming and retreating much like the people we meet.
The gust of wind played with her hair,
Closing her eyes, she could hear it whisper.
"Maybe in another time, another era, another life,
You stood here, witnessing nature,
Holding someone's hand in yours,
Now you stand here alone, independent, driven.
Still, you feel that void, don't you?"
Like a piece of the puzzle is still missing,
To complete the fulfilment of her heart,
She opened her eyes in hope, and let her fingers entwine and fold,
Perhaps to hold on to something, or someone, non-existent
Or someone waiting to enter her story.
~ Suranya
Lonely hearts, troubled minds,
Youngblood, false pride.
Emotions and infatuations,
Drunken nights and confessions.
Moving on and confusion.
A weak moment for one.
A first heartbreak for another.
Avoiding glances, guiltless pleasure,
Endless attraction, secret ships.
Love lost to "Lust"
In all these.
~ Suranya
The sand on the Shores hid treasures of shells,
Under His skin, like a man with secrets.
In the distance, the setting sun shone,
In the vast sky, like a man in love,
Spreading scarlet hues across the world.
The rays kissed the Sea, turning the waves blush red.
With a pinch of vermillion, the Sky painted the Sea
He made Her a reflection of Him,
From dusk to dawn, day to night, the Sea saw Herself
Coloured in His tone, just the way He liked it.
The Sky made the Sea easily His,
While She tried all Her life in vain, to Meet the Shores.
~ Suranya
