For Whatever It’s Worth



I don’t know what love is anymore
Soul aches for you now evermore
I don’t know what I feel anymore
Alive, with you around forevermore

I don’t know what I think anymore
Mind's filled with thoughts of you ever more
I don’t know what I want anymore
Miss breathing this life with you even more

I don’t know what I need anymore
Warm hugs, kisses, missed more than before
I don’t know this pain I endure in my core
My feelings true, strong, keep me ashore

Seeing you, brings me joy and peace
Holding you, makes my troubles cease
Being around you, I melt in your heat
Loving you, makes me feel complete

Some don’t feel, some won’t understand
Some won’t believe, some don’t give enough chance
Some fear, assume and think they are right
An open heart and mind shall keep us alright

So my dearest loving friend, forever, everyday
I Wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day
And for whatever it’s worth, even a dime or two
This heart will continue to beat for you

Mahesh Wadhwani

I always apologize for the length of my text as that’s the best way for me to communicate rather than verbally!! Not a man of many words but still manage to doodle when in mood to write, which is rare!! I am not even sure if what I scribble is poetry or even what form or just words that rhyme!! To me writing is an art, a sign of creativity and a means of expression. I don't really think that anyone can just write without any feelings, without having felt, without having lived, experienced or cherished. Whatever one writes, there is some amount of a persons own feelings and presence or of those around them, indicated in the works. So I am thankful to all the people in my life and those yet to come for having given me life, love, happiness and even pain. At-least I have had the opportunity to feel it , live it and express it, whatever it maybe. Cheers! more…
