Our beats

Lemme go, she said.
Where will you go, he asked.

Away from you, she replied.
How far is the away, he questioned.

I don't know, she dismissed him.
Then lemme carry you there, he pressed.

For when your beats thud against mine,
You will realize
That it's our joint beats
That has kept us alive.

Never forget

Why do we forgive people
Someone who doesn't value your worth
Someone whose reckless spirits questions your accord
Someone who blabbers for a crowd
Someone who can be unreasonably vicious

We ignore and move on
Is it a compromise with self
Is it a sign of weakness

Moving on, is a sign of valour
Forgiving, a testament of evolving
But some chapters are better to be burnt.
Coz if you don't, they will keep tormenting

But how do you earse memories?
They continue to haunt
They too will die a slow death
Till then,
Forgive but never forget what it cost.

Between you and me

There's something between you and me
I tried to find words to define us
All that I found was love.

But that wasn't us.
Was it?

Because we had met for a purpose.
Or was it our destiny
To meet and depart.

But there was something special between us
Even if I can't find words...or us.

Everything she gave

Power is alluring, he said.
She gave him the power to exercise.

Lust is so luring, he yearned
She showered him with bounteous flesh.

Fame it is that I crave, he complained
She guided him in that direction.

He had it all
But still empty.
What did he miss,
Maybe love.
By the time he realised,
She had left.
For her own good.

Finally it was them

They sat in silence
They didn't have words to vent
Everything just evanished when they met

They looked at each other
Eyes brimming with heart ache
All the months they lost
Their flesh and blood
So much of their blossoming empire
All gone for a pearl of suspicion.

They sat in silence
For they were spent, without each other
They didn't need words
They couldn't afford further distance.

For it was finally them, at moment
And no one else.

Murky waters

Whenever I made love to the daughter

I pinned for the mother

And when I slept with the mother

I yearned for the daughter

It was time to blend 

All of us together

The stage was set

When twilight trickled from the floating curtains

We formed a triangle of nudeness

I initiated by pulling them on my lap

And fondling their breasts

Gradually they relaxed to my melting touch

The daughter knelt

And freed me from chains

The mother stroked my ears with feathering kisses

I was about to burst

For I was literally being raped.

We moved to the comfort of the bed

I dipped my fingers in the daughter's crevice

and smeared it on my lips

And kissed the mother

She tasted herself

Her flesh, her blood

It was heady mixture.

As I bowed down to drink her,

I pulled the daughter closer

And made her suck her other breast

She sucked passionately.

Before I knew

I relegated to the background

Lighting a smoke, I luxuriated in the unfolding scene

It was a pageantry of two slithering snakes

Hissing and kissing

Trying to mate without my seeds.

Hours blushed in their discovery of each other

It was time for me to join the fever

Three of us, swam in murky waters.
