Hues and mist raved through the storm and found me.
Little did the waves know that my soul was not free.

My heart became her starry night till now,
World's chaos challenged the brave and left with a vow.

O' beloved, understand that life is not here to thrash you,
but is those chances given to the moments to build your tomb.
Your places are both in the roots and buds where you bloom.
So when love comes along and asks why, say bliss at rare times paints itself blue.

A hypnotizing halo of life breathing in the darkest grave.
Upon your grace, my trails become my slave,
As I command my footprints to bring me far.

A knight I become and my quest is to save.
Even when you turn into those stars-
My oath still remains to erase all your scars.

Entrenched for the longest time
The weeks and months and years flew.
Although the winters have gone
I will always be rooting for you.

Searched within that field
For a single speck to turn to.
Although we are already withering
I will always be rooting for you.

Ingrained for the longest time
The soil, with petals, is blanketed anew.
Although we are already drifting
I will always be rooting for you.

Swept clean from the storm
Into where I know is true;
Although I am at the edges
I will always be rooting for you.

You weave your stories like the night,
stringing the moon with the stars;
the finest of pristine pearls,
threaded by twilight.

Weaving the finest Varanasi silk
with life as your celestial loom;
laying down gold- and silver-threaded brocade,
dormant gardens burst in bloom.

Your pen is the philosopher’s stone
turning lead hearts into gold;
manipulating structure in stunning stanzas,
inscribing on hearts in italics and bold.

Nodding in acquiescence
the sages of the ages,
will then add your magnum opus
to their papyraceous pages.
The bloom of beauty
and the sweetness of a kiss.

Dreams that glide
ebb and flow with the tide.

Slumbering clouds
the glimmer of a dawning sky.

Can we do this in the open? And I'm hoping we can be open. I mean available to do favorable task for each other.

Or we can take it the bedroom, where our love can bloom...

Sling my leg over your shoulder and get closer.. Take me on a journey as I'm yearning for this to last longer.

I'm still hoping that we can do this in the open
So that in between your strides I can feel the wind glide up my thighs

Or I can take a ride and try to hide my expressions of pleasure

Or would you rather do this on the low,
In that dimly lit dark hall
So that we can fall madly in love with making love
With our mind body and soul.

Lips light pink and soft, like petals to a rose
And eyes that glitter in the light of the room;
Accompanied with a simple smile so warm
It boils ice; that is how my flower blooms.

Water it with each beat of my pumping heart
As the bubbly heat within my chest shines down;
The elements of my compassion serve as
Rich soil; that is how I grow the seed I've sown.

The truest beauty lies in bonds we live for;
I could never wisely ask for anymore
Than you.

Who needs a garden when I have one flower that is priceless?

Autumn falls down
Every year,
She wants to be caught
But no one is near.

She becomes cold,
Dresses in snow,
With winter ice
down to her soul.

But then she blooms
And springs back up,
She defrosts and
picks her own self up.

She's warm and smiling
On a summer high,
Her worries, now birds
floating up in the sky.

But summer ends, fall begins,
And autumn falls down once again.
Notice what the seasons are doing,
So when you fall, just keep on blooming.

The flowers bloom momentarily
Winds carrying their delicate aroma
Swiftly guiding me towards them
As the petals have spread their beauty
Spreading happiness all around
A brief encounter leaves sweet memories
