One day

 

Heard about those miles

Bare feet on the endless road

They say I have to walk on

There was no other high way-

Sun's heat baked the ground,

Journeys like this shall pay,

Just waiting to be found-

One day.

 

Beloved,don't you worry-

This soul is not lost

Just stopping by over one of

This misfortune cracks

Of the traveler's track,

And wondering what would it be

Like to have you forever-

One day.

 

Rain sings to me in tune-

poetry,melody and love

Blends and becomes one.

Reunion of the unknown magic-

That only ignites with

Your tender touch.

Someday-

Roses and winter frost-

Shall call upon thunder

To declare the end

of world's heart break-

One day.

 

Black Lashes

 

Many nights have passed

in deep slumber,

O’ how I missed my muse

that came alive in sheer darkness.

Wide eyes of hers-

Black lashes that

slowly unwrapped themselves

from one another

and became the flicker

of a distant fire in the woods.

Tonight, I am finally awake-

to witness how the

crescent moon waits silently

for her starry poetry

before the world spins again.

Truly, hours of darkness

made their home

on her soft skin.

 

O’ beloved,

the way you became the night

and how the dusk

embraced you

along the arches of your collarbones-

left this soul gasping.

 

My mind formed many more verses,

To sing to you-

For I have finally found you-

Midst the thousand lost stars.
