Please Stay | English Poem by Ashoo Agarwal

Stay…
My thoughts are deep as the Pacific Ocean
If you know how to dive
let’s jump in together.
madness is my home, insanity its walls
If you can survive the dark
there are corners of my soul
that still holds black holes
let’s bury ourselves under it’s burning coals.
Stay…
knowing that silence is the very essence of my soul
I will teach you its mesmerizing echoes
placing our words on the tip of our fingers
together we will paint the sky on starry nights
and see our conversations in the constellation.
Stay…
If you find a mess,
still beautiful, still worthy to love
and know how to take care of hearts
that comes with a tag,
‘FRAGILE; Handle With Care’!
