Aditi Mishra Poet Lyric

Velvet Caress - Lyric

   Sing to me with your light
      my parched soul loves you
     I'll uncurl my silky tresses
       to let your fragrance brew

   Let me weave from dreamy raindrops
       a blanket that wraps stars
    I'll take you behind cotton clouds
        to a world that will be ours


   Chorus:

   I carved your name from the golden sky
      and lit it on warm sand dunes
   I've waited so long to drench my soul 
      in velvet caress of your tunes

   Your trembling lips melt frozen breath
      I am no longer inside me
   You drip through my crevices in snow
      I fuse in you, let me be


    Two parallel waves tied by pearls dance
        we kiss in tales of love
     frivolous moments fuse to touch desires
         pouring stardust from above

    Let the moon get drunk with our melodies
        musical sandcastles afloat
      Embrace me as seashells spill chiming breeze
        Let me blush, on me you dote


   Chorus:

   I carved your name from the golden sky
      and lit it on warm sand dunes
   I've waited so long to drench my soul 
       in velvet caress of your tunes

   Your trembling lips melt frozen breath
      I am no longer inside me
    You drip through my crevices in snow
       I fuse in you, let me be

       I am no longer inside me
           I fuse in you, let me be

        We fuse and sail, let us be..

John Watt June 22, 2020 at 1:16 AM Do you have a tune for your lyric? I know you enjoy singing, just wondering if this came out formed as a song? "Let the moon get drunk with our melodies" is such a richly romantic line. Whoever you may choose to sing this to would be a lucky recipient indeed. Simply magical, Aditi, best wishes in the contest! God bless you my friend ~ John Aditi Mishra June 22, 2020 at 10:02 AM I don't have a planned tune for this lyric as of now dear friend. But I am glad you consider this to be composed as a song. Though when I wrote these lines, I was humming a random tune. Thank you for such gracious words of appreciation. I really appreciate your constant encouragement. God bless you :)
