All in My Head – Delhi Poetry Slam

All in My Head

By Shachi Sharma

I have never met you, 
But I have seen you. 
Seen you in my thoughts, dreams, and distant echoes of false memories.

I giggle and smile like a lunatic. 
My feelings are so strong, I'm almost sick of it.

I don't wait for your letters, but I wait for your texts.
I stress so less; It's an apocalypse.

You fuel the fire of my desires.
You are my every waking thought.

Am I the flaw? I debate.
This wild heart, this fever of feeling,
And you owe me nothing for it.

I am no stalker, but I will be your shadow.
I would love to know your beliefs,
Your favourite colours. 
The things that bring you joy and the ones that drive you mad.
Tell me the songs that linger in your mind,
And the passions that make your heart race.

A completely different dimension exists. 
Where we have met. 
But it's all in my head.

I'll wait for you,
'Cause there is no escape.
I'll wait for you, 
There is no escape.
