Jezebel

Share

in a veil, she glided, flouncing the satin, lifting the hem, revealing, tempting, alluring, drawing in her breath, fanning away the fire, adding heat, embodiment of the demon herself, a talisman, she seized hold of hearts, every youthful august, her soul devoured, and left no traces, of frail in faith, prone to evil, and laugh […]

Rapture

Share

soft murmurs, on the lips, sweeter than honey, rosier than roses, drowned in a tranquil, sweet slumber, lies, a fair maiden, her dainty feet, tuck’d underneath, slender fingers, curled,, clasping one another theĀ  sun kisses tenderly, the locks, that curldown, the wind that caresses, and leaves, whispers your name, in every willow, and yet oblivious, […]

Splinters

like a broken toy i carry with me the remains of what use to be a simple joy faith that the heart nursed absurdly sweet buffoonish the wind tossed me brutally and rigorously unmasking the crudeness the materiality i stand alone with barren hands gaping wide dreams slipping away one by one bewlidered now lost […]

Euphemism

Share

don’t read too much, into my plainspoken expression, I often misqquote myself, underrate my cognitive process, verbalize sharp wordedly, articulating unseasonably, of what is left, in an interrupted, lamentable excuse for a conversation, never bridging the void, intensifying futile endeavours, of reaching out, attaining delusive outcome, where the anima merges, into obscurity , only breaking […]

A Lil’ Nipper In Me.

Share

wide eyed and artless, as a fawn in wilderness, I miss the skills of enshrouding, the warmth and ardour that emanates, unwillingly I flow into ethereal currents of faith and reliance, I may not recognize my deep nestled ambition, only that I reach out for arcs of colours in the skies, and promises of beguiling […]

As The Maiden Yearns

Share

soft enamoured breath, delicate slender fiingers, sunkissed tendrils , that swing around the angelic face, rests by the window, a soul unaccompanied, in her sighs lie concealed, the yearning, of a departed mate, wakeful she stays , in starry nights, and when the moon’s illuminated, serene slumbers , are gone with her beloved, she begs […]

Ache

Share

dew drops in the cups of desire ignite rage furiously drawing vitality summoning life in a perishing emptiness hauntingly adhere enkindling the corona of ardour rejoicing frenzied thirst locked and entangled in sweet knots mesmerised and betrayed into submission longing to be a captive a slave of insatiable ache

Off The Rack…

Share

Off the rack , in the boxes , we tape and tie and seal, long summer days, tree houses, squirrels, mango smoothies, school bus, fat fairy tale books, birthday bashes, drifting milestones, badminton,jymnastics and karate, chaotic day dreams, sweet sixteen and a sweet lot, haircuts, exams and med school, wild rovers and chocolates, rooftops, backyards, […]

A Sullen Winter

Share

In the creases of the black velvet, As it grows cold, The night spreads the arms, Never really sure , If the rain would come… Thoughts are a riot, They storm and pour, Stepping down the ladders, Of reason and truth, Excuses to go on, Promises of a sunshine… Tell me not to worry, In […]
