Sunlight & Sealed lips:
Narrative Poem
By daybreak, there is an unalloyed moment when the sunlight kisses my face
Not enough light to wake me from my half-sleep state
Or burn my ivory skin, but just enough to allow my mind to wonder
I remember the sound of a camera shutter
His unblemished smile on my lips as he pulls me in closer
In his sleep, the weight of his embrace erases all the anxiousness in my headspace
Speak to me low I value the beauty of today, like frolicking through blind ambition-
I mean, blonde ambition
You look beautiful in my black t-shirt, he says in his morning voice
Speak to me so like stealing a glance how can I be any near to you? Cause this closeness, isn’t close enough?
Speak to me sweet, I take comfort in the beautifulness like sealed lips
sheerly & flawlessly
There, there, my heart is soothed nearest you, outrightly
How I miss such pleasures like Rasasvada (tasteful bliss in the absence of thoughts)
So much thoughtless rhetoric goes into our waking life,
the relaxed intimacy between us has fallen between the creases of silk sheets
Entreat, Enchanting, Entrancing
Speak in such a way that our hearts know at a glance, we can glow like an orb in the dark
