My Post Card To You
Hands interwined,
doomed the moment we navigated the room.
Intimacy our first impression.
Our whispered laughter,
still replayed on the vinyl of my heart.
Constantly skipping a beat.
Cupids antics yet again traps me in a pit of despair.
I failed to read the terms and conditions,
distance is the illness that plagues us both.
A glance and a roll of the eyes,
my heart beings to drown in it's own longing.
Annoyance the only excuse to be around you.
Your presence shelted by your insecurities,
your voice mute,
hand connected to foreman.
You retreat to the fortress called "comfort zone".
I lay seige to this castle.
I demand freedom,
the maiden is caged in the darkest of her mind.
Yet the protanganist was never I but you.
A glimmer of a smile,
you vanquish the demons lurking in my thoughts.
Now I capture every butterfly accompanied
by the utterance of your name.
In hope like you,
they'll save me once again.
