Beneath the Blues

Candle was center staged A Candlelight Romance perspired Flame lit up beautiful faces Flame, ruthlessly pierced with rushing Nicotine Lovers Love drowned in the Sea of Smoke Passionate kiss became oblivious The burnt lips cried in vain Only Pungency of Ashes, choked fragrance of Love So many cries, so much noise Numb Eardrums, an agonizing mum Estranged from Jazz, envious of Saxophone A burning Spirit, a claustrophobic Heart, left tussling No Mango for Tongue, it’s all bitter Booze Trembling with Disgust and debris of abuse No sense of direction, no sense of senses Compassion dwindles in all Tenses Those long Drives look real long Like a rush in a Marathon Windows are ruined by viscous dust Praying Lords for a heavy Rain bust Scent of a Woman is cringed Manifestation of Romance winched It’s high time to burst the bubble Time for a Kiss beneath the blues of water Let those wet curls smitten you Let that touch giggle you Drive down those tamed roads Feel the rush inside Stop snooping for the Rains Take a dip into wet terrains.
