I lie on your chestMy ear close to your heartListening to you live. Your lips,Light, and soft like fearthersDance across my skin,Teasing me into submission. My tongue tastes you.I inhale the scent of your skin,As l trace my lipsUpon the velvet landscape Of you. I’m All Yours. © M.H.

And though you dancedNo music played.It was all in your head. I played alongSwayed and dippedAnd held you so close. Your dress was sheerEach move like ripples.And sparks crossed between us. And when it stoppedThe rhythm of the silence,We kissed starving lips. Fingertips numbFrom holding on too longOur hearts using up all the air. AndContinue reading “IN SILENCE”

I want to take you by the handLead you into every room in my houseTake a while in each oneTo look aroundAcclimatise. I want to dance in the rain with youYou’ll never know how long I’ve waited to dance in the rain with you. I want to walk in the sun with youYou’ll never knowContinue reading “A JOURNEY WITH MY HAND”

I was digging in the dirtAt the side of a leaf-strewn riverbedSearching for something I lost. It’s hard to miss the purpose in lifeWhen someone goes and leaves a holeShaped like a broken heartIn your already shattered world. But l know redemption is here somewhere.So l continue to digBy the side of the leaf-clogged river.Continue reading “THE RIVER”

An unitchable itchCast by a witchWho could bewitchThe angels. My spell.That she put me under. An unacheable acheJust as I’m awakeA potion to makeMe fall. Her charmsThat l cannot resist. An unlovable loveAs below, so aboveMy hand in her gloveLatched tight. This acheThat only touching her will ease. And then a different ache begins. ©Continue reading “ACHING”

I’m miles awayI’m waking upIn someone else’s shoes today.. I’d like to sayThat even thoughYou feel as if you’re far away I’m by your side. © M.H.

I looked upInto inky blacknessThinking of the sky you seeWhere you are. Is it the same? I picked outa tiny pinprick of lightClosed my eyesAnd made a forlorn wish. Did you see it? Did you see my messageOn the curtain of the night,Feel my wishIn your heart? Do you see our star? It sees you.AndContinue reading “STARS”

Lying hereLit by low Winter sunStreaming through thin curtainsI glance at you beside me. The rise of your chestAs you take in each breathInvites kissesAnd gentle strokes.But l dare not wake you. This morning visionReinforced my decisionTo talk to youOn that beautiful and fateful dayAnd how you’ve repaid me. Sounds from another roomThe kids areContinue reading “MORNINGS WITH MILA”

You sayYou don’t see your beautyI sayHow can you fail to. You sayYou love me moreI sayThat’s just impossible. You sayYou miss me every dayI sayYou’re my everything. You sayIt’s like fate knew usI sayWe are eternal. Who is right?Who is wrong? None of us knowWhy some see beautyAnd some see plain. I just knowWhenContinue reading “YOU SAY”

I wandered into your orbitDrawn by your lightA faraway starA whisper in the windAnd I strayed by every night. To begin, we were soulmatesWe shared so many thingsA song, a poemA piece of our livesWe flew on love’s wings. But slowly you became a shadowAnd edged away from meI chased after youBegged you to stayButContinue reading “NEVER”
