259. 'Pyaar' ke side effects

they pluck
at all the adjectives
that adorn me

they
find me
astounding

they cannot
keep their curious eyes off
all the stories
that I am

each day
I lose pieces
that you have given me
to strangers
who never knew love
and never may

how do I tell them
that this love
was not mine
to know
to flaunt
to give

how do I tell them
I just was lucky
that
I found you
to leave me love
on each moment of space
on each inch of time

how do I tell them

these strangers
who
find me
inspiring

because I worry

after all my memories
are plucked

what if
they don't find
me
astounding

what if
they don't find
me
inspiring

what if
they just don't
find
me
