Love

I oft speak and hear thou name, murmured like a prayer from lips of forgotten

On the Ganges bank, one many sublime, on river beds of earthen slime

In the eyes of a moon shaped visage, the labour of assimilated devotion

In smiles as shimmering as the oceans, ambrosia laced concoctions

In fire's crackling wisps on a cold day, in a stranger's eyes along the way

Like a warm spring of hot water,

Even a miragy oasis,

A caffeine shot of joy, circadian osmosis

A glass of wine, transmogrifying vapour to incense

Frictionless inclines, winding labyrinthys.

I feel loved, as I am meant to.

Delusion cackles in the dark.

My fear and disappointment, ebb and flow

The after-taste of tartar.

When time no longer exists, neither do I.

All of this is a lie. The days and nights we spend, the words we say, the touch we share, all of it a ruse. 

We role play and pretend, I say it’s for the best. 

Fixing houses we won’t live in, making beds we’ll never lay in, creating realities we can’t accept.

If I fail I’ll be ordinary, if i succeed, a mythical creature.

How sad is it that our victories lay in the death of,even the possibility of love.

Something Just Like It.

#5

Long winding roads covered in white, cold and chilling yet somehow invite my heart to wander under the moonlight-

Saunter around the stars travel through this night.

White sandy beaches,warm and alive, bustling with activity and freely flowing wine. Fingerprints all over us, ones no one will find-

Tracing every feature and line.

Walking down a street in the middle of the night, dancing in the spotlight of a lone street light-

Touching, loving, living we're alive.

My heart always knew how to, but yours has made it take flight.

These are some of the things I say when sometimes my insides ask-

Do I really want this? Will it truly last?

I don't know the answers to any of those what I do know is that what we have is fragile like this snow and could easily be love or something just like it.
