Drop by drop


You are a work of art, he commented
Your posterior is as enticing 
As is all of you

And I imagine
Painting you with only purple passion
For my intentions for you
Is base
I can only think 
Of being savage

Every curve of yours
Is luring death
I so wish to melt
In your sensuous luxuriance

Holding on to you
Like a dying man
Drinking ambrosia
From your ripe breasts
That drips
Drop by drop.

An apology


An apology
Is all that is needed
To erase the harshness 
Of words 
And deeds

So easy?
I wish it were 
For the person who endured
Those caustic words resonate
Making you wonder
Was it necessary

An apology
If it could blur the reality
And you bounce back blithely

Unfortunately, it smothers your individuality
You didn't deserve such
But why such disrespectful behavior
And then the apology
How deceiving people can be

Wow, people escape so easy!

Framed in my heart


Yet, she was unaware of how beautiful she was
Until she saw her reflection
In my eyes

I didn't see the scars of age
I saw her eyes shimmering with grace
I didn't find any grey tresess
I found them dyed 
With experience

It wasn't her features
Nor her feminine curves
It was only her

The luster of peace
The aura of elegance
Which she radiated
In her solitary existence

She was beautifully framed
In my heart.

Undress me


Undress me, she commanded

How can I, he questioned
There isn't a single thread on your flesh

Undress me with your nude eyes, she teased
With your bare touch
Till I feel you 
Melting my senses

And when I soften like the candle wax
I will smear the smoldering residues
On your phallus

And blissfully watch you
Crying in pain

A haunting reminder
'Never leave the lioness inadequate'.

Altar of love


Unsure whether forever will be us
But as long as I am there
I will ensure our now 
Will be forever

Dunno whether we will blossom
Or wither
But as long as we are together
We will be each other's cure

I will not promise anything
I won't even expect anything
For my love is unpretentious

I will give you
With all my heart
And if we ever depart
I will still treasure us
In the altar of love.

Soul echoes


The urgency had mellowed down
With time
But the feelings were strengthened

We met occasionally

It was no longer rushed
We waited, for our space
And in that realm
We spoke 
Through our eyes
Through our beats

It was a sense of completeness
When we embraced each other's actuality

No words
Only answers
Implying our longing
To be with each other
Till the soul echoed
With the rhythm of love.

Our sacred space

Silence prevails
The chaos within
Has subsided
I found my shore
In your divine core

You touch me
Without touching my chassis
You love me 
Without expecting anything
You have spread laughter
To my being

What are you to me
I question myself
You are the temple 
Where I have recreated myself
The soul whispers

I cannot love you
With only my gestures
I will not unlove you ever
With my words

For you are the sacred space
Where I have sealed us
With infinite love.

Remnants of me


And then they all started coming back
One by one
Reminiscing the moments 
I had created then

I yearned for companionship
While all they craved
Is a taste of flesh
And left

What happened to me
I simply withdrew somewhere
To protect myself

And then he came
The one who was destined
The one whom I was unwilling to accept
Again

I tried to reconstruct myself 
It wasn't easy
I didn't want another one
In the name of love
But I went ahead

So starts another chapter
Maybe few pages
One never knows
I am clueless

So much I have lost
So much of my purity is gone
All that remains
Is a skeletal frame

Still he holds on to my 
Remnants
Why.

When she withdrew


She simply withdrew

She didn't have the endurance to tolerate
Another abusive relationship
She was so done

Everytime, she treaded with hope
It killed her 
All the more

She became contented
In her solitary confinement
No more love
No more pain
She was done

It wasn't her loss
When she resolved to walk away
For she knew
She has left her foot prints behind

She always did

And wandered back
Into her wilderness.

Dilemma's of love


You mean the world to me, he said

She just smiled to herself
With tears choking her heart
She wished to believe
But she couldn't
For she wanted safeguard herself

She trusted no longer
Disillusioned with experiences
Love: what a fictitious word
Lust: everyone wanted
A piece of her flesh

In her abyss
She was still breathing
Still struggling
But why
And for whom

When she couldn't know
Which one is her's
How can she be
Someone else's
So she went back
To her abyss of skeletons

While he holds on to her
With hope.

Mere touch of yours


I keep telling myself
It's just phase
But somehere
The anxiety of us drifting away
Lingers

I wave off the feelings to the back burner
But they resurface

I know it's the distance
Between you and me
That intensifies my insecurity

I know it's your heartening touch
Not my sexual inadequacy
That has become my dictating necessity

I wrestle with my groping emotions
That's robbing my significance
And I sink into brooding silence

I am waiting, my love
For that mere touch of yours.
