Passion of love

We lay in a blanket under the moon and stars

the white-silvery light reflecting off your skin

Highlighting some areas and ghosting some

As I explore you like a place I have never been

My fingers skating along your smooth curves

and the excitement of joy I can feel in your nerves

Light kisses trailing along the chromatic line

this pleasure is like a hidden treasure, hard to find

Whispering the poetic rhythms in you ear

You know my every next movement like a seer

Now our entangled delight reaching their top

you want me more and more and not to stop

Slowly the irresistible passion of love pouring out

and our exuberant souls flouting like feathery clouds

Just to tell you

Words are not enough

To show my love

But most of the time

It's only words with what I am left with

Just the thoughts of telling you my feelings makes the heart melt

I try to string the words to show what I had always felt

"All this time

about you about us"

Like, how many times I have tried to mend

To say something meaningful & be a good friend

But the time passed and gap widened

We hardly spoke and now I am frightened

Frightened that I might not say right words in right order

As this gap of silence is becoming deeper and wider

Now not saying anything is easy

& the seldom smiles we share are the only treat 

Be happy and live

In all the agonies, anxiety & expectation

where everyone trying to make reputation

So busy achieving the delusion goals

hardly had time to care about own souls

The simple pleasures felt as an innocent child

were long forgotten in this race

The responsibilities that came with youth

left no time to enjoy that important phase

Now feeling betrayed by the passing time

as losing energy & turning old

Even with a purse full of dimes

can’t do anything with the earned gold

And the answers he was searching

were not so profound and deep

In those last few moments left, he realized

all he ever had to do was “be happy and live”
