Dearest: A Little Meet Poem by Yours Truly (:

Helloo and thanks for taking a look! So I've been stuck in a writing lull lately and I haven't been able to write anything even REMOTELY decent. I've been wanting to write a Meet FF for a while, but I've had no ideas whatsoever because, well, I've never watched Hindi serials with the intention of starting a story on it so I'm getting nowhere with ideas. After last night's episode though, as I lay in my bed, trying to fall asleep, I got the idea to write a poem for them. And ta-dah! I present you with Dearest, a Meet poem. Enjoy!

Dearest

He stepped up and saved her family name

Sparing both sides the needless shame

He gave up his love, he gave up his life

And took on that girl as his life-partner, his wife

She sat on their bed, her tears in her hand

Her wedding night, but not with the man she had planned

He took one look at her and made his bed

On the couch instead

Months have passed, and now their room

Is decorated just like it should

Have been on their wedding night

They exchange a look under the fluorescent light

He wants to tell her all that he feels

But he first needs to know that what she sees

When she looks at him is her best friend,

Her love, her prince charming, all the way till the end

She looks up at him, trying to read his face

Wondering whether she should be the one to close the space

Between them. But she holds back:

What if he's not on the same track?

But you see, they now sleep on the same bed

And he longs to plant a kiss on her head

He is in love with her, he has realized,

Falling head over heels into those warm brown eyes

And she loves the time they spend together

Always wanting him to be with her

Missing him when he's not around

And light-headed, floating inches off the ground

Another step, a slip, a fall

He catches her, and he finally bares all

Comments and constructive criticism will be much appreciated, since Radz wasn't too helpful...*ducks daggers thrown at her from a certain person who is adamant that she write an FF for Meet* Kidding! You know I love you, Radz! 😛

Thanking you in advance for reading (and commenting! 😆),

a very accomplished Bhav (:

Just for that crack, I'm turning up late tomorrow! *hmph*

Love,

tat was very nicely done....keep up the good work...

oh very nice thanks for adding here ⭐️

😃 Thanks everyone!

beautiful........... poem for meet.wow u r grt👏 explained all their feelings in a poem

its.................. fantastic. how can you ask for criticism when this one needs an award. all i have to say please write an fanfic for these two i will love to read it as it will be as good as this poem please 👏

Im normally am a silent reader on the forum but i have to say your poem was amazing and very well written, i loved it! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

bhav. must warn you that my brain doesn't work too well in the morning.. woke up early to catch up with missed schoolwork. which, of course, couldn't hold a candle to the siren call of if.com... 😆

so i read the pome. y'know what i liked most 'bout it? that you started with the very large (honour and ''...needless shame...'' - what a lovely phrase - and life's plans all gone awry). and then - bam! - went down to the specific: what two people who've learnt to become friends, feel and want to say in one special moment.

that feeling the pome wrought was ... cool. 😃 *see? i told you i wasn't a very good brain in the early morning... and boy is it early for me here!*

so i liked it. but i must say -- i thought it ended too soon, too abruptly. there must've been something more? feels like the last two lines are a teaser to something bigger, more melting, more .. permanent and forever-after?

no?

maybe not? maybe it's just my bleary head... 😆 maybe i'll get back to this when my brain is awake and alive... like at 1:30am. 😆

but i still like it. i do. g'morning. now i must get to taking down those missing notes! 😆
