A Kiss In The Dark

       As gaze of sunflower to blazing dazzling Sun
       My love being devoid of demand and passion 
      flowing towards you on silent adoration.

      My hidden love : soft -shy, not expecting much, more.
     Whether you love me , couldn't guess or assess, not sure.
      Nectar secretion of clams formed pearl of dolor.

     Couldn't unfold petals of my budding emotion.
      Sinking in dismal without expectation 
     Slowly giving up hope for reciprocation.
       
      Dormant desires pierced my heart shaking senses.
     A kiss in the dark reached me in Seven Heavens .
     Gained clear distinct vision through amorous lens.
