Poem

A Crescent arrives,

Hinting a full moon.

A full moon, 

At whose sight, 

My mind goes restless.

Sighting a shadow, 

thinking it to be you,

This heart,

Lets out a lightening.

~~~

Where is My poem,

The one I wrote in my dreams.

Did it melt in my eyes,

Or did the Dawn wipe it away.

Find me my poem now,

Or at least return me my dream.

~~

In the evenings' dusk, 

In the by-lanes of my mind,

I search for the lost face.

In the tarred streets,

That melt in the heat,

The love-lorn flower withers.

With each drop of rain

Shed from A cloud,

I search for you,

In the breaking waves,

I search in pain,

For the lost love..

If I see your beautiful face once,

Satisfied I will be, with peace.

Then,

With a finger tip,

I shall touch you,

And be born a hundred times over.

~~~

That one look, 

That one voice,

That one touch I yearn for.

The heat of that breath,

That drops A kiss, 

Wishing it forever, i sweat.

The sweat drenched shirt of yours, 

I wish the smell sticks to me..

When your face blossoms for me,

The pleasure,

that pricks the cheek, 

I ask for.

I ask for..

Made of Stone, 

this heart of mine,

I said, to you, my friend.

Like a flag struck 

into the stone,

You have sprouted in my heart.
