No, Sir. I'm not Manil.  He's been referred to as Mani Suri online, at times. He's a famous novelist. I'm but a humble poet. Sorry to disappoint.
 
Manindar (Mani) P. S. Suri

Hi that was a nice one. Are you Manil Suri? if yes I have heard your name before and probably even read your work.

You, seen, felt in so many different ways...
 
Excuse the bathos, here's how I see
 
YOU
 

 “I love you” hardly seems enough

To plumb depths, breadth

of my feelings--

Oceans aren’t deep enough,

Everest isn’t high enough,

The universe too narrow.

 

A chocolatier’s perfect confection,

Just on the right side of being too rich for the palette,

You’re Calliope, my goddess, muse

on Mount Olympus,

Consort fit for Zeus.

 

You’re my Venus de Milo,

Botticelli painted your frothy rise from the sea.

You’re my surasundari, my apsara.

 

Jealously I guard

Your dulcet charms,

brilliant wit,

Veil the sun, moon,

lights of the night’s canopy of planets, nebulae, streaking comets that emblazon your name across millennia,

Lest the world know and engulf you in adoration

and love;

lest I lose you.

I love you.

(C) Mani Suri

You
 
Whether I'm speaking
motherese or schizophrenese
you catch me
 
when my feelings
fall haphazard
like drops of rain
your face wells up
with a smile
 
You do not exist:
you become
each time
I look up
for help.
