I just want to love you for a day....

Deep into your eyes
I will condense my passion...
Right into your soul
Will I rub the ashes
Of my singeing heart...
Closer to my breath
Will I draw your shivering being
For I just want to love you for a day.....
With a tenderness I've never known
Let me lock away those tresses
That cloud your countenance
And play across my strings...
As I run across the fields
That spread from your nape
And trap your giggles
In the nooks of my memory
For I just want to love you for a day.....
As the gurgling streams
Of untamed yearning
Meander through the inches
Of my fixated body...
Let me ensnare you in my arms
And take over your life
As a lost chapter of my own
For I just want to love you for a day......

There I am....

There I am

Hidden somewhere

In a hundred pages

Torn edges

Of tender memories....

Dripping from those corners

Are blissful nothings

I spent, basking

In the shy glimpses

You blew my way

With the silence of your hazel eyes.....

There lurks somewhere

The makings of a We

From a You and Me

In blatant blue

Written uncertainly

Then crossed out

Erroneous in a zephyr of emotion.....

Folded away, tattered I lie

In your desperate attempts

To look away

Yet there always stand out

Beneath scribbled mundane

Pages you wish you never tore....

There I am

Waiting for you...

Opekkha... (The Wait)

You've broken my fences....

It's time again.

To look for a chance

From under the arch of my palm....

As I wait for my insides

To silence their turmoil......

For a silhouette

Is beginning to take shape

From the last drops

Of the setting Sun.....

I hear the music

Of your footfalls

In the mischievous flurry

That tickles the leaves.....

And everything begins to sing

The gleeful drops of rain

Carry your being to my heart.....

Immersed in the perfume

Of the tender loving Earth.....

Dedicated.
