The bride's roses are dry,
They crumble under my touch.
Your feathery white dress is
Worn, its lace whithered.
Even our steps on the
Aisle are dust.
Now you sleep like one
Used in Love. Still seems
Near that day of restless
Ecstacy, you were coy,
Abash. And I held you
Like spring holds new buds.
Your moon-lit skin seemed
Soft, so palpable. Wrinkled
In its softness, now, it still
Beckons me.
Let me bite your red lips,
While you sleep coylyThis is my first post so felt like posting something older than my most recent works. My fingers are crossed..

ur best work so far!

ReplyDeleteHey!
ReplyDeleteFinally started your blog.. congrats!
Coming to the poem, I found it melancholic(in a good way).. very Tagore!
Tagore?!!.. OMG, eektu baara-baari hochee na?..
ReplyDeleteNo way is it Tagore ... more on the style of Emo poets ... you and your obsession with kissing and lips ...
