Propensity

PROPENSITY

Bit of gentle wind
squeezed in to the mind 
seeking a tranquil space
where you might be conceal 
Recollecting old memories 
Bitter, charming, displeased, and distressed
just as beam of light blinking
through the dark clouds
in the dawn  
Your eyes sluggishly expressed
love and willingness to share 
our lives
Looking sententiously 
you queried about insight in my mind
analyzing, bearing, confirming, discerning, to explore
But your face appeared to 
blossom as a tender flower
Your eyelashes 
blinking like a butterfly wings
It took prolong duration 
to realize for me
The love is a valley of tears
time is a thief
all those a tricky fabrication
