My Kali kills, my Draupadi strips, my Sita climbs on a strangers lap. My women militate. they belittle kings, take on the sun, take after me.
Ilahi, as I breathe your breath upon my lips, I am taken back to the tumultuous rise and fall of your ******* as I rode upon your dreams as you called out my name, Ilahi, as I breathe your name upon my breath, free me from my death like stupor, encase me in a wreath of your forgiveness as I beg you, Ilahi, as I breathe my last tonight, it shall be your smell arousing me in my shroud of nothingness yet everything is you, You are all that I breathe. Carry my breath with you, Ilahi.

Silent Phobias
Take me away with you, love. Take me to the promised Land. To the place where I'm safe in your arms. Because I don't want to be anywhere else. Because that is the only place where I belong. Finally. After all these breaths, all these hushed whispers, You and me by the sea. We can either drown or ride these waves. What's your decision,love? For I don't mind dying if I die in you.

Breathing
*Green and blue. Each contorting into gruesome hues, Only to dance, With the thought of each other. Creating, Yellow. Yellow like the eclipsed sun, Yellow like the dying flower, Yellow like the blood of Gods, Ichor.*

Bleeding Ichor
When She looked at him, He was busy trying to make sense of the world. And when He finally freed himself from his chains and searched for Her, She was gone. A silent whisper in the treacherous night, Lost forever among the stars.

Promise
*I don't remember the exact moment when the lines between friendship and love became blurred, when I started losing myself inside these lines. All I know is that you are all I can think about, day and night. I breathe you, I taste nothing but you, I want you. But I need you more than that. It's this incessant need, the way the moon needs the sun, fire water, salvation destruction. And this need scares me. As I am a bird of flight, never to be tied down by any one rock. But now I want to be held by you. I dream of being in your arms, lost in your smile. You have changed me, love. That's why I need to forget you, to dispel you from my system, shatter your image in my head, so that you no longer are my inner song but another broken lyric. I'm saving myself. Building these walls again. Running away. Because I can't wait for you anymore, Shane.*

Inside these lines
My breath quickens as he draws close. It's everything about him. From his tousled hair, unkempt beard, and those eyes of his. Eyes that hold the universe. Eyes that are the universe. For me. I am but the girl next door who made the mistake of getting too close to the stars. And burn me he did. Leaving scabs that are never to heal. That can only be forgotten. But how can I forget him when he has crawled onto my  flesh and taken proud residence? How can I forget him when every insolent breath gives me a chance to hope? How can I forget the stars that soar the sky every night? But here is something that I have forgotten in my haste to love him, You can only see the stars. Never reach them. And never for one, have them for your own.

An improbable reality
And when he looks at me, With those bottomless eyes of his, Eyes that sear my soul, shatter the walls that remain and oust the sorrow within, I am set free. Flying with those that never died Dancing with the sun that never set, And singing with stars that have no voice, I am free. Free from the worldly chains that bind me, Tethering me to thistles and thorns, That bleed ichor and laugh pain, I was free. Free like never before. Free forever after.

Enslaved
Words that form, have no meaning. The truth I speak, Isn't the truth. Alone in this new life of mine, Imprisoned in this cage built by my own hands. The directions are a blur, As my feet step on thorns. I lament my fall, I cry out in despair. A song bereft of word or rhyme. Falling to oblivion that lures me in, Promising happiness like a lullaby. Fallen. Promise.
