I love you
like a fish loves water.
I want to drown
in your love
like a river
wants to disappear
into the sea.
I want you
to the depth
where dreams and reality
start speaking to each other,
where questions
find their own answers.
I want you
while making tea,
while showering,
while waking up,
while falling asleep,
while eating,
while reading a book,
while writing a poem,
while walking toward you,
and even while walking away.
I want you
without measure,
without reason.
I don’t know why
I want you this much—
I just do.
I ache for you
like a poet aches
for the perfect word
for a line that won’t leave them alone.
I want you
in my breath,
in my laughter,
in my tears,
in the small, quiet moments
that belong only to us.
Let my heart turn to stone
If I cannot melt your stone heart
with the warmth of my deep love.
And if one day
I’m gone,
you’ll still feel me—
in the wind,
in the sunlight,
in the tiny things
that keep reminding you
that I was here,
that I loved you,
that I still do.

This is truly beautiful.
Strangely it reminds me of another poet I know. Right down to the teaching!
It spoke to my heart, like all good poetry should.
Simply wonderful.
Thanks a lot 🙏 I'm an English teacher in a school. I write poems in Hindi and English.
It's so strange to me, because I have a friend who is also a teacher named Deepak who I've never met or even seen.. we send each other letters and tell each other our poetry.
It's so special to me I can't explain. I just thought the coincidence was so strange, because you have the same name, both teachers, both write poetry 😅
A poetic expression of love, a shout of oneness, deep desire, a cry for unity. Well written.
Thanks a lot, dear friend.
You are most welcome
