Night invaded the blue sky
the simmering moon floats across
sweet night air tickles my senses
night queen tantalizes awakening desires
while I lay next to you
gazing into those soft brown eyes
I realize I belong not to myself
but to you
then you whisper I love you
I lower my gaze with shy
as tempted kiss lingers
on my smile.
Keerthi Sep 2019
on a Saturday morning
casuals to school
on a street
a vendor with a straw basket
selling flowers
two for five
wrapped in a damp cloth
dahlias in merlot and pink
roses in yellow and red
mother bargains
two for three
on silky braids
pink dahlia perched
like a microphone
mother laughs
at the grinning beauty.

In the sea of
bobbing heads and winding lips
I am lost
and found.
Keerthi Aug 2019
When you walk with me oh god,
everything seems so beautiful,
the blazing sun in shadowless sky,
the thundering storm and deafening wind
I see the savage beauty through you
and I reckon wandering wilderness in me.
Keerthi Jul 2019
soaking in the sunlight
under the trellis of greenery,
shadows dancing on the face
and warmth lulling to a slumber,
faint music pouring into the ears,
and fleets of feelings unfolding
dancing with the memories,
untold stories peeking behind
the closed lit eyes,
pressing to let out.
