Museum of Memory
The ebon hair untamed
Some swirled in the stream of squall
Some weaved enigmatic lattice on the forehead
Locking the charisma of the evanescent mind
Lest it flew away from the face in the wind
I kept it framed in the museum of memory.
The almond eyes unclosed
Eyelids danced to the music of butterfly flutter
Eyelashes aligned with starry strings of the satin sky
Holding the dulcet facade of dream-soaked charm
Lest it floated away from the face in the wind
I kept it framed in the museum of memory.
The flower of luscious lips unfurled
Donned the lilac patina of the sunburst dawn
Dew drops glittered on petals with sparkling allure
Engraving the contours of the mystique smile
Lest it drifted away from the face in the wind
I kept it framed in the museum of memory.
The crimson cheeks unveiled
Spread jasmine scent on seductive zephyr
Caressing the face suffused with aurora glow
Painted the transfixed portrait of ethereal grace
Lest beauty fades away from the face in the wind
I kept it framed in the museum of memory.
