Love’s Musing
Love’s Musing

This diamond, a small scintillating tick,
A flawless passing to adulthood quick
A sharply shimmered sun, in treble,
When our lips unearthed each other and clung,
When words escape like air from the lungs,
In silent language, in Tipani petals,
The dawn horizon stretches through her, bright,
Smitten with the clarity of starry nights,
Forever embraced in a moment’s kiss
Boundless through her eyes like flawless stars
In a world of ephemeral memoirs
You are that fire that burns eternal bliss
And people come to see your passion’s hue
The way it ignites you, the way it takes you.
The chemistry of touch, my soul, your heart,
No grander purge, in the flames of cupid’s beckon
Would again burn London down in seconds
Then in the minute hours of slumber’s start
When the entire world puts their hearts to sleep
The lyrics our silent mouths would steep
With but our eyes and through those windows, roam,
Like kindred souls who knew how to tango
We stared for hours, if minutes then let go
In perpetual bliss and right at home
With that you smiled, and I was wholly conquered,
My heart like putty in you tender offer
to me, you were a fight worth losing
So I sat there near you, as my heart melts
I couldn’t imagine sitting anywhere else,
riveted with the idea of love’s musing.
