At times you need to visit yourself
For there is a mountain
That stands high with skyward eyes,
For there is a river
To a ocean that unifies
And for there is a forest
That homes the phoenix
That dies only to reborn and rise.

You won't know the value of gain
Unless you know what loss is and what is pain
For nothing ever grows without rain.

Moments, seconds
Minutes and hours
Days, weeks
Months and years
Running ahead they all are
Leaving me behind
Wrapped in velvety grief
As I perplex with a baffled mind,
"Have I ever actually lived"?

-

Paint me aquamarine
And drown yourself in me.

-

I want to be
The timelessness of your time,
I want to be
The stillness of fading existence.

-

Let's get
Wrapped with
Ribbons
Of starlight
Let's be one
To hear
The soul's song
This eventide.

-

You are like
The caffeine
Whose brewing smell
My nostrils crave to inspire
While the tongue
Desiderates to kiss.

-

I am your
Straying
Unwritten verse.
Pen me down
Sewing me back
With broken words.

-

Those lustful
Ardent gazes
Strong enough
To captivate
Hearts in trances
Defying future and fate
She'll make you
Take it off for her
And will feed you
With the darkest desires.

Read me those
Venereous verses
Till I succumb
To release from
Breathlessness
In a whimpering wet mess.
