I had once slipped my feet into a pair of footprint that I found
when I stopped to look at the sea. It was moist but mildly warm. I could still
sense the curves of the feet, the space in between the toes which once stood right
where I was standing - a subtle gradient between the vigorous waves and the burning sand. While each ray of light began to dim
around me every single cell in my body screamed for company. I wanted to share
these extraordinary, ordinary few minutes with someone.
One day a column of air blew into my flimsy shirt and my
fingers found them entangled with yours.
The touch of your skin so familiar...yet completely new to me.
The sphere of the sky moved in circles taking us with it into the infinite layers of the cosmos. We were looking for stars that never cease to shine. But the constellations were not on that dark surface, we found them in us.
The smile, I remember. The first thing I remember when I remember you.
When a cross in hand could teach me nothing, aimlessly walking towards a mirage of meadow, an angel crossed an atheist path.
ReplyDeleteGently held my hand, whispered "you can't leave a footprint that would last forever if you walk tiptoed"
I tried to match her gracious cadence, just to be with her a moment more. She slowed a bit, caressing my hand I got her silent message that I tried to confabulate:
" My past is like a footprint indeed.
It only confirms that I was there.
Bring on the rain, clear the pane of clutter."
Whilst I basked in the rays of her Halo, I woke.
When I saw only one set of footprints, then she carried me
"It's like catching lightning, the chances of finding someone like you
DeleteIt's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do.
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better..."
Unlike before I am not on same side with my demon.
ReplyDeleteMy demon spews :" Unlike me, humans are 'fickle'-minded and always 'strays' for mirth and pleasure. Your senora might change when the pain of holding onto you is greater than the fear of letting go."
I refuse. I vehemently refuse to agree, as
thinking of her keeps me awake
Dreaming of her keeps me asleep
Being with her keeps me alive..
This war will gradually transude 'cause now I know my angel and heaven are on my side ,on the victory's side. I will win.
"I am planted here by the waters and
DeleteI'm living for the King.
I have found my peace in the house of God -
This is where I'm meant to be.
Your love is beautiful,
Your love is beautiful...
It's the reason why I sing."
Enchanted by your sunny-bright smile I ventured for you,Elaine.
DeleteLike a moth's wish to reach for the Aine, I roved like Icarus. Oh! But Alas, when I thought I had finally reached you, I burnt my wings.
When I was descending, there was no-one beside me, not even a sigh of wind to hold me up.
All I longed was, to bask under your gentle rays..
A chill went down my spine. I touched the looming cold depth of death and despair.It was over me.
Or so did I thought to be. A warm glimmer embraced me.Slipped her fingers into mine, and held me up in the midway.
The Helios for whom I ventured, metamorphised into an oceanid. Struck by her enamour-invoking deed for me, I cried, was I worth for it?
Her bewitching glance showed me that we together painted the sky and sea, red.
The Dusk and The Dawn married each other.
The cheeks fired up,
DeleteThe moment captured.
A magical inferno up in fumes...
Two beating hearts -
Breathless and enraptured!
