near the next turn… meet me.

i hum a song, its sunday’s light

the crowd’s not dense, i can feel the wind

standing here on the edge of a road

i can hear the next train passing the station

a sky filled with a pattern serene

the clouds that ring my romantic mood

the chimes of the nearby shop door opening

makes me want to dance a step

i see if i am being watched

and then i progress

but i so want to hold your hand right now

i wish you would wear that pink dress of yours

if like that day we can meet once more

that would be such a splendid time

walk towards me right now if you can

near the next turn, close to a paper stand

i have three primroses on my right hand

catch my pace and reach me wearing a smile

i’ll grab you at once and hold you close

decorate the roses on your hair

and walk with you with fingers so clasped

our joys would spill over footprints left.

🙂

backyard.

filled with her fingers

her backyard bloomed

in evening’s dim emotions

her lips widened with awe

at the sight of modesty

the colors presented

she was honestly surprised

yet pained because of

those humble shades that

perfumed the air all the way

to the deepest layers of

her unbound heart

thoughtless, expressionless

she sat like a perfected sculpture

waiting to be touched by warm skin

while the sun drank the last of her sight

and sunk betraying her intoxication.

there swings the second hand.

if i hold one and let the other be free

i am afraid i have but half of you

this tender world of dreamy state

i walk on clouds even while awake

how love swings my heart so wild

i have you now yet i have not enough

i keep tracking your eyes stubbornly with mine

wherever you look i wish to be a part of it

like a canvas loving her artist i

am fond of just your pair of eyes

the swings of time, as the clock ticks a rhyme

my hand that’s loose holds my chest so tight

to be a part of you, yet not so much i am scared

i am blessed and yet i am cursed all the while

love’s breeze can be rough sometimes

i am in love yet hate who i become

the moment i feel i might lose your love

i lose myself along with you.

a long lost night.

in dreams i chant

a dreamless night

that place of warm comfort

surrounded by the sounds of rain

lit by a thousand candles

reigning in his arms

a long lost night of myself…

 

sweet fumes.

sweet fumes of midnight lust pervade
a silent palace with open gates

some sway in the scented breeze
that captivates its innocent prey

each night a blue cloud floats
from a distant land like an african ghost

dark yet soothingly mysterious
calming the roots of wandering souls

as if no escape remains
and none can successfully retain

anyone who ever enters this maze
is tied with such intoxicated lace

such beautiful rhythm the senses ignite
as if it were the last resort of endless plight

sadness that so sullenly engraves
slowly like a midnight’s mist evaporates

should there be an empty heart somewhere
at that estranged place shall turn into an affair

such blissful greed that suddenly rushes
to obtain all that can be humanly attained

sweet fumes of those entwined breaths
are meant to cure feelings uncontained.

a pair.

side by side
parallel
walking past the sun

shadows criss-crossing
what beautiful form
so immense

a moment of time
a dance
performed

lets forget everything else
beside you is me
and i have you

lets make a pair
and ride the eastern wind
rising

the noisy waves
subside slowly
as our hearts make voice

lets breathe this air
subtle and mild
and live a moment of life

together with you
everything changes
without you everything ends

so its meant to be two
only us
no one else

just alone me and you
in tandem we make
a pair.

 

finger-burnt.

passing through
a wild crowded street
sometimes

a terrible thing
just happens
to me

someone, unknown
passes me by, his fingers
touching mine

and in a flash
i burn like fire
in a cage

like words
trapped inside a page
i start, to suffer

a discomfort
spreading through
somehow it was unforgettable

i walk yet it feels
like i am walking
backwards

again and again
to the same place
that same point

searching for
that stranger
of mine.

 

bring me a feather
to keep for myself
bring me a dream to hold
bring me another moment
with your love
and make me immortal
with a kiss… 

tis pretty this night
this evening shines
i can hear you sing
inside your heart
i can hear you
wish for my glance
it is a little cold tonight
yet it is sleepless once again
there is love in the air
and you are alone
in my arms… 

I am romancing the thought that I too can be romantic…

The Girl Soul

If it were any time
Then it would be this one
When I would fall in love 
With you, whoever you are
I know you know how
This season transforms a heart
The weather resting
Waters dripping
Clouds diving beneath
Not a trace of wind
To disturb our kiss
And my hair would lie
Out of the way
Away from our lips
As we try to convey
Wordless meanings
Carve love into our souls
And save each other
From a life of loneliness
This season my love
You know how it is
Its just magical to meet
Someone who loves me too
The way I do
This weather is just awesome
Its serenity, its charm 
There is an unending song
In play inside my heart
I know you would hear
It inside your cells
They way we two are
Just made for each other… 

Life stops for me
When you stay a night
Wrapping me in your warm love
The stars gazing our romance
All night I dream with open eyes
And you write love on my skin
As I breathe moments
Colored in shades of lavender  
I lie in your arms hypnotized
Each touch a magic
Each kiss a ticket
To lands of fantasy
High above skies
And I dream all night
With open eyes… 

“Let Me, Please…”

Let me just kiss
Your tender lips
In complete love 
Fill you in my arms
And warm you up
In my love
Caress your hair
With fond
Feeling every strand
Every stream of wind
Passing through
And smelling the scent
That escapes in gaps
Let me run my fingers
Upon your soft tender arms
And tickle your senses
Somehow making you blush
And force you to smile
Out of shy
Let me just breathe
So your neck can feel
My whispered verse of love
Upon them
Let me just close your eyes
With mine
And dream together
All night…

There is a story
Weaving slow
In the background
Of all these light-reflecting faces
A story that
Will end in making love.

Romance is in the air
Like a fallen leaf
Am flying with you
My windy counterpart.

That closeness 
That electrifying touch
In the dark
Stunningly sensing 
The close counterpart
Feeling each breath pass
They lost their all
While lost in love’s
Irresistible fall
Mystified by his touch
She froze in his arms
Only to be released
By a soft convincing kiss. 

That First Romance…

He came closer
Still closer
As if walking in his dream
Approaching closer still
His eyes beamed
Bright like the stars
Of love
His proximity, her dream
And a discomfort
That was more comfortable
Than his separation
She could not resist
His romantic arms
And yet she whispered
A mild apology
Attempting to find time
To calm he fast beating heart
And took a step
Just a step away
When his strong
Love-seeking hands
Seized her
Pulling her close
To his warm cozy body
For an intimate dance. 

Romantic Musings

I was listening to this song

“Ma belle evangeline”

From Princess and the Frog

Romantic springs 

Started flowing right away

Inside my heart

There is nothing 

So beautiful 

As Romantic Love

A dance in the night

Beneath a million little lights

Is a dream

I crave for

A pure blissful night

In the embrace

Of a lover

Is all I would ask for

And make it the last

Of my life

My wishes

And dreams, please.

“Love is beautiful,

Love is wonderful,

Love is everything,

Do you agree?”

Sings the firefly

In love with a star

named “Evangeline”

His love transcends 

All truth

All Earth

And heavens afar

A heart in love

Is like a glowing

Stone of red

That can light up

Every corner

Of every heart

Close by

And when the lovers dance

All eternity smiles

“Look how she lights up the Sky, Ah,

I love you, Evangeline”

Love 

Is an emotion

So strong

So captivating

I can hardly hold

This flying heart

Of mine!

That Blush On Her Cheeks

Oh dear

He smiled back at me

I just can’t believe this

Cried the girl’s heart

And a rush of blush

Colored her soft cheeks

So pink

So pretty 

And as she smiled 

The beauty surfaced

Of her heart in Love.

The shades of a blush

Have a lot to convey

And a story to share

It means that

She is infatuated

Captivated

In that moment

As she feels 

Herself adorable and beautiful

Through his eyes

For the very first time.

Pure emotions

Pure little sensations

A slight increase

In the heart’s loveliest disease

Apparent physical symptoms 

Of which a blush is just an example

Under that soft skin

Is covered the beginnings

Of her very first romance

And love’s most passionate dance.

Romancing the Sun

The sun is glaring at me and my face

Flirting with me but hiding his face

From in between the leaves

He throws now and then a trace

Of light upon me trying to embrace

My love for him

And my soft heart’s grace

Girl’s don’t like this behavior

I complained

I couldn’t tolerate such lies, I said

Since my little heart pained

You love only the sunflower

I asserted

But he smiled at me and I was touched deeper

Inside my heart

With his rays he tickled my senses

Trying to convince me of his love’s innocence

Feel my warmth

Feel my love for you, he said

His request was like

Some eager lover’s readiness

And suddenly filled me all over

With warm evening kisses

Melting away all my anger

But then he started to change his color and shade

Moving away westwards

A warm final good-bye he bade.
