infatuation

you held my hand,
i called it love.

i punctuated my feelings,
i called it poetry.

i saw you with her,
i called it death.

then,

i saw him,
i called it a beginning.

he held my hand,
i called it love.

and,

i punctuated my feelings,
i called it poetry.

For me of the lot this was the best poem. Probably because i am a novice when it comes to stuff like relationship and all. But even otherwise it was a poem a result of deep contemplation (and perhaps past exp.).

this was a very beautiful poem...touches you at the heart...the language was simple but the meaning was very intense. i really enjoyed it.
