subtle stirring
your whispers
gently explode
beneath my skin
your charm
softly clings
hunting me down
move your lips
flutter in my eyes
between my breath
and your touch
feel
a paradise
being born
your whispers
gently explode
beneath my skin
your charm
softly clings
hunting me down
move your lips
flutter in my eyes
between my breath
and your touch
feel
a paradise
being born

Ah, the truth is always in the touch of another. In that first instant, you ‘know’. And then, the heart beats faster, and you are lost. The gentle caresses can only be found in the emotional intimacy of another, who understands that connection from the heart. Thank you for a lovely share Himani. Namaste

thank you for the feedback..all the poems here, actually none of them I have “made” myself. weird, I know. the way they flowed on paper when something/someone evoked me..I transferred them here in their very raw form. hence I guess you felt that way. but thank you, appreciate that comment 🙂

Actually Himani, I agree with you. I am not much of a poet but I feel lines dropping into my head all the time. I wonder where they come from. In fact, I carry my notebook all the time. Even quotes/aphorisms come like that. Sometimes I have woken up in the middle of the night to record lines that were coming. Of course, lines come but nothing much comes through them 😀 This is happening when I am not a poet. Wonder what happens with those who truly know poetry!
