My Enigma

What you’re or have been through, I may never be able to measure,
But I see your threshold of pain expands than the cornfields
You may not know but sometimes you appear heartless
Many other times, you’re just meek and sweet
You draw close, hold the hand and then push back so hard
You beckon but then you ask for nothing at all
You have become the desirable north wind that blows away
And yet turns everything in a whirlwind to itself
Sorry I can’t feel your pains but you don’t let me see them too
I wish to know what makes your heart pine, what you truly desire
I wish to hear what your heart says and not your mouth, eyes or smile
I have closed the doors of passion and opened the windows of affection
And that for your own good, mine and our sanity too
If my affection doesn’t extend to you then what is my gain?
You helped me find my peace in the weirdest way there can be.
How do I forget an enigma like you when even in my dreams you live?
I do not seek your love because you don’t have much to give.
But I cannot stop what I feel or does it cost a thing to be loved?
The one who is loved truly is the luckiest one.
I’m celibate now and wish to live for world peace
But I’m in love with an enigma.
And that’s just all that there is to it.
