Poem Title:
Poem
In a room bubbling exuberance and a gaiety crowd dancing to beats we sit across each other ten feet apart, his whispering pulses become audacious every second approaching my heart and I shiver as they unravel my layers, intimate desires beneath naive smiles. Flickering lights on his velvet skin, topaz brown eyes decipher my love, unveiling pearls behind chandeliers as I make nervous moves to blanket them in timid blinks of my lush orchard, but he knows for I see him smile, his blazing patience till we escape this cacophony to face each other in euphoria. Beads of sultry lemonade on his lips kiss my fingers as I touch my glass, he seems jealous of my crystal earring embracing my cheek, entwined with my hair and I envy his cotton white shirt draping his ocean of passionate dreams. He folds his sleeves, I tie my locks, we've taken our first steps, now ten steps apart drenched in mists of our heated breaths we float at night, our glances intermingled in frequencies, that only our fingers can decode in smoke, weaving patterns in the air between us, my anklets kiss my fragile feet, embellished in raging storms we drown, in waves of hushed union escaping through vents of a moment standing still known just to us, pouring through crevices that moisten parched lands. He has read my fantasies in folded memories, electric touch flaming my passionate side as his fingers hold mine in our recluse. We've made love without physical touch, and now we dance on pearls of octaves, intertwined with beats on the surface, curling in laced rhythms of ancient *ragas. *Ragas are musical melodies for improvisation akin to a melodic mode in Indian classical music, considered a traditional means in music to evoke certain feelings in an audience.
