Painful it is,
A separation!
Cruel it is,
A rejection!
Pointless it is,
An expectation!
Promise it is,
A realization!
Vulnerable it is,
An affection!
Hateful it is,
A desperation!
I fade just like an
ocean loses its color
under the reflection
of golden skies.
I sail through the
dusk to be absorbed
into lustrous shores.
I rise after each wave
pushes me with a whisk
of sinking colors.
It is my wish to
spread my rays
around you so
I can yearn more
for the petals of
your flames.
It is a sea of passion
flowing in the heat
of your desires.
Somehow my obsession
fails to melt the contours
of your palms.
I am ignited to
the verge where
my body breaks into
dewdrops that later
turn into golden ashes.
Once sunshine said to me,
“Enter inside the candor; glare is yearning for you.”
Once rainfall said to me,
“Submerge in my obsession; thunder is rumbling for you.”
Once sky said to me,
“Seek beyond the limits; universe is dancing for you.”
Once courage said to me,
“Rise above the fears; gallantry is searching for you.”
Once heart said to me,
“Justify with the desire; love is waiting for you.”
Once body said to me,
“Enfold inside my soul; tranquility is asking for you.”
When you touched
my lips, I knew it was
your desire to try
melting tears.
I let you be part
of my adventure
we were tempted for.
I was that candle
flickering in ecstasy
all day long.
I am running fast.
To where?
I don’t know.
To escape maybe?
From myself or
from them. But
I am running fast.
So I can hide
in the dungeons
of my own caves
or perhaps disappear
under the mounds of
those floating clouds.
He once gave me a
book of gold to be kept
in my treasure chest,
but I ran out of words
of jewels for him.
Crisp mornings of autumn
bring back those memories
of the sins we committed
under the canopies of
some orange, some yellow
dying leaves.
