My Friend, My Love

I imagine being there in enchanting places
Conjuring up insights of sensuous images
Driving friendship to threshold of romance
Confessing my love when she isn't around.

When the uplifting sky adorns rosy sunrise
Quickly I abandon the constraints of norms
As soaring vibrancy celebrates the new day
Guiding my hopes to contours of happiness.

A look in her eyes now transforms my heart
Sending intimate hints to commit a trespass
As a glimpse of her smile boldly reaches out
Tearing down the barriers that hold us apart.

I've seen a change in the way she responds
When walk in the park turns to jubilant stars
And touch of her hand claims a flirting glance
Enticing our vibes to command fervor of life.

Yearning for encounter of alluring emotions
Fire of desire intoxicates dreams of the dawn
In passionate kisses forestalled for so long
Reaching finality of love in each other's arms.

Hi Vijay, Close proximity with friends can bring forth subdued feelings of love - sometimes it is OK to go forth, sometimes it could break hearts - a soulful poem and one so true, I'm sure a lot of us have experienced a situation like this - a fave for me. very well penned. Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

The line between friendship and love can be very slim sometimes, and it takes some courage to take the step of no return. As usual, you excel in these vivid and romantic poems, Vijay. Congrats on your win. Regards // paul

And this is how it should always be. Friendship blooming into love. A heart knows when the time is right, for such emotions to take flight. Friends become more!! Because of understanding, compassion and trust. This is so beautiful and romantic. "Confessing my love when she isn't around" Exactly!! :) Brandy
