Game of Chess

Can I write about you?
Would you open up to me;
And allow your heart break free…
Let yourself float in the waves of life.
Will you let me chain your soul for a while?
Not to posses you but to listen to your heartbeats,
And love you just to feel your rhythm.
 
I will… I will let you go,
Once I capture you in my words.
Till then, will you give yourself to me?
Like you have done before so many times…
To prove your need, to amuse yourself and ego!
I remember the stories you shared with me on that beach,
You had finished our last crate of beer.
 
Will you come again…?
Meet me and take me along in your spree.
Let us create a story whether you like it or not.
Give me a present; let me reach your core and nurture.
Do I have to love you for that? Or can I just naturally pretend?
Let me feel your existence, breathe your scent, and explore your mystery.
Shall we go again to that enchanted moment?
 
Why don’t you answer me?
What have I done, that others didn't do to you?
Yet don’t you see I have tried to understand you-
And I have given you what others could not...
A belief to live with...!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Hey Anindita; I stopped by for a visit and found this deeply introspective piece from you. Filled with great imagery and a longing to hold on to a moment of time passed by. Beautifully written and expressed. Be Blessed, Neva
