Someone's Sometimes

So easy it was for you
So difficult it became for me
Decisively we were together
Conveniently, you went ahead

I wrapped you to my soul
Yours, remained a perfunctory embrace
Everything you asserted and enacted
Was dyed performance
Which I couldn't see through

Faded have we
Was this meant to be

Maybe, I wasn't meant to be
Someone's sometimes
Some relations, are never meant to be
Never meant to be

Only Visitors

They are all visitors

Erotica it is, that lures.

A sensuality that simmers, in verses

They tap to enter

To gauge her intensity

To dip in her seductive waters

Lust it is

Lust it always was

Ahh these visitors, 

Some youthfully explicit

Some hushed admirers

Along came a fellow poet

Who waxed eloquence

Penning rhapsody, he continued for a month

She was in trance

Assuming he was the other half

And he eventually evanesced

Coz, he was just like others

She chose not to succumb any further 

For they are all visitors.

For an ethereal face 

Or the blossomed flesh, that lures

The wait had died long back

So had she

So it hardly matters

Who stays

Who retreats

She will be who she was

Not defined by these visitors

Diamonds and Ashes

Tiny dots of diamonds adorned his frame
As he walked out of the shower, naked

His refreshing presence
His limp flesh
It was a lure for lustful indulgence

I swayed towards him ripping my layers
My intentions obvious

Kneeling at his abode
I seized him
He gasped, as I swirled him in my crevice

Clutching my head
He choked me with his pomposity
His groan resonated the air
When I devoured every single trace of him

Diamonds studded all over his skin
But ashes it was,
That came from within

We went back, inside the shower
For diamonds to wear
And ashes to be smeared
Together

Only Flesh

So much is always left unsaid
So much is always left unwritten
And people see, only the flesh
Perversion transcends imagination
Respect, long dead

Why I write
What I write
Do I have to justify myself

Love is me
So are desires
I breathe them in words
And survive

But the classless
And those heartless
Only consider me as a piece of flesh
And abuse my very existence.

Still I will write
Coz that's the flesh that had given birth
And that's what I am made up of
My flesh

Reasoning Heart

The heart has its reasons,

Not every reason has to be reasonable

It still wishes to fall in love

In spite of enduring the capricious seasons

Not just to seek the lush of winter

Nor for the glistening saltiness of summer

But to be cocooned in the splendor of love

Where we symbolically unravel each other

Where the purity of our love

Celebrates life beyond earthly passion

Where it is just us

In our virginal forests

My heart aches for you, my love

In the most pristine form

Just be with me,

With your comforting knowledge

Allaying my insecurities,

Assuring me of your sagacious presence

Crooning with me, the tune

That I have been humming alone

I reasoned with my heart, not again.

But it responded back:

you are the kiss, 
That lady luck, has planted on my forehead.

The why's

There were several questions that were bothering her
While she escorted him, upstairs
To her room
Why was she doing it
This wasn't the man she craved
Was he, her killing
Or she was being preyed upon
She couldn't fathom what was happening
Still, they reached her room.

As he closed the door
He drew her closer and kissed her fiercely
She felt bland
To his devouring, to his groping, to his presence

She pushed him away
And looked into his eyes
They were not the eyes, she had wish to coalesce
He wasn't the name, she had desired to cherish
He was just a vain flesh

He was not her man
How could she do this
Why did she lead him
The why's, were shreiking

Was it a punishment to self
Was it an act of avenging
Was it him
Or was it her
Or was it love

Collecting herself, she walked towards her destiny

Hate to love you

I fear to tread this path again

I am so done with emotions

 Again heartache

Which is bound to happen

I don't want you in pieces

Nor can I slice my heart 

I want you

As you do

But how do I do

Either I love you

Or I distance myself from you

But I can't now

For I have already started my journey

With you

With trepidation
