Redamancy...


The perfume of your darkness...
The silence in your eyes...
Bursts of incoherence
Infuriating your breath....
My veins, possessed...
Dancing to your tunes...
Your surreptitious touch....
My walls undone...
Toppling bricks...
Your rain seeps through
The dilapidation....
In the ashes, I amass
The wind beneath my wings...
Your indulgence in a wait...
In the broken backyard...
Unperturbed,
As the skies cloud
At the behest,
Of an unclenched sigh...

A Night, Untethered...


Like a shaken flower,
Holding itself together
In the eye of a storm...
I attempt to grasp
The spells you whisper,
Into my broken dream...
And as I fall out
Of the phantasma,
I find myself
Enclosed in your arms...
I've lost my being
Amidst the pandemonium
Of what was, what is
And what there is going to be....
I've surrendered my words
To your gamble....
As a prize
I see you carry me away....
Written over me
In unspoken ink,
Is the unadulterated scent
Your desires carry....
And I'm blinking astrew
The stars, amused
At the wilderness in my eyes....
For I carry in them
The reflection of me
Flying into the moon....
While you strut into the blue
Of this untethered night....
And I sway
To and fro,
Intoxicated
By the rhythm of your footsteps....

The Slip...

Your lips shatter
Into a brilliance
Of untainted arcs...
And I pull them together
As your smile slips
Into my soul...
Like a peek
Into the well,
Of which
Legends remain silent....
For words have little
To ensnare,
All that you gave away
In a glimpse...
Something flickers
In the distance...
And I know
That I own,
A clearing
In your mist...

Interwoven- IV

I seek you in blue
For you colour the sky
That sits playfully
Atop my brow,
While I bask
In your undone smiles...
And the hearty laughter
Of that notorious neon,
Adorns your face
With my spotlight....
You shimmer,
And astonishingly
I can grasp you...
You don't glow away in the dark...
No.
You, unabashed,
Shall stay by my candlelight
And burn in my desire....

Interwoven- III

You are unspoken...
You are lost...
And there is a spot
In this wilderness,
Where I run
To hide,
When I can hear you
Beating in my veins...
That star
Which you sung to,
Has brought me
At your doorstep...
I've stolen a rainbow
To surprise your butterflies...
And they rejoice,
As they knit
Your dreams
Into the sunshine of my mind...
At last,
I know...
You are almost there
Somewhere close...

Interwoven- II

And then one day
You asked me
How I was taken
By your smile...
An attempt
At breaking through
This glass,
I saw red
And switched off....
For words,
They deserted me
In the death of darkness....
I still seek
That oasis,
Where people launch
Into magical allusions
To nature's mysteries...
To bestow
Upon meaning,
A manifestation....
But each time
I walk through
A despairing mirage....
Left,
With that inkling
Of grasping,
A fleeting glimpse
Of your reflection....
In the agitated waters
Of momentary disenchantment...
And somewhere, I believe...
That maybe
I have touched upon
An ounce of truth
In the real...
Like a grain of sand
In my eye...
Floating away
In blinks...
With the rest of this empty universe...

Interwoven- I

You shared with me
That cold moment
Of inherent weakness
When my legs shivered
And eyes shrunk
At a chance of shame....
You stood there
And your eyes said,
You didn't want to go....
But subtle touches
Of a social animal,
Intent to build a wall
At the sight of attack,
Overtook my sensation....
As I looked through you
And asked you to leave....
