separation
wait.
In a sacred moment
I tasted your presence
to the depths
of my soul
and all I ever knew
melted away
time stopped
and that moment lasted
for eternity
in your touch
you showed
what it means
to feel,
in your embrace
what it means
to belong
enwrapped in you
snow flakes
started to burn softly
and I forgot
where I ended
and you began
lost in the day
a thought of you
brushed by
like a gentle breeze
and butterflies
started fluttering
under my skin
in anticipation.

they still exist

awareness
thought seeds
spring into reality
leaping out of perceptions
I dive deeper in my soul
heaven and hell
are right here
nightingale
I often leap
to touch your colours
breathe in
your lingering taste
in agony, in ecstasy
I climb inside you
as you unravel
in my veins
in your garden
flowers blossom
like open secrets
and warm kisses
fall down like rain
your one spark
spun me in a trance
now lost in you
I have become insane
every single memory
leads me back to you
born out of love
my very existence
bears your name
tell me
oh darling Beloved
how can I stay apart then
and yet
remain the same?
glowing embers
Beloved
give me a sip
of your flaming wine
consume me in your Love
intoxicated in you
I have come alive
with every bead
kohl stains, tears stream
from these tiny eyes
dreaming to behold
your beautiful face
they long to see your Light
my heart has grown weary
of looking for love
bleeding, it crumbles
revealing the subtle Truth
that quietly rests inside
Beloved
give me another sip
of your flaming wine
show me the way
to the tavern
or let me be annihilated
here, on your sacred shrine
flowering lament
the boundaries have dissolved
and music ceaselessly plays
held captive by your gaze
I have become a moth to flame
with nothing left to say
I am melting in this moment
slowly fading in your haze
embrace me
in your arms
and let me escape

don’t you know
in a love like this
death is sweeter
than separation

-‘๑’-
so kindle the flame
and move towards me
in silent passion
come closer and burn away
these shadows
of seeming separation
untouched melody
there is pain
that lies hidden away
the pain whose source is unknown,
where it originates, why it is there
an almost unbearable heaviness
as if a huge tragedy transpired before
perhaps in some other lifetime
as if memory of the experience
has faded away
but the agony, the pathos still remain
a sorrow I can drown myself in
a loss, a separation, a heartache
that consumes me at times
and stirs up the unknown,
the unanswered questions,
the endless pain
that flows so smoothly
when little things, their deeper perception
spoken words, their hidden silences
a knowing touches me so
it is often then
that a liberating realization,
a strange yet familiar feeling
breaks open the shell
that encloses my understanding
of the world around me
of the depths of my own soul
love beckons
your dusky glow brings me near
your persistent lingering, even closer
ever since I have found this bliss
ever since I have known you
I haven’t gone back
I only made appearances
in what I hold most sacred
my heart, my flesh
my soul, my worth
you are everywhere I see
don’t acccuse me of loving you so –
how am I to exist
when all I feed on is your light
how am I to breathe
when its your breath that fills my air
don’t let me yearn
for just a brush of you
let me dissolve in you and die
make me that part of you
that can never be separated .. ever again
