You'Re Destined For Me
YOU’RE DESTINED FOR ME
When I see your frail body
Poetic similes come to my mind
Which I read long years back
Like summer sun dried the lawn grass
Winter dryness makes the street dusty
Looks not cheerful, freshness you lack
What had gone over you I wonder!
A violent storm nature’s fury
Or a disease so dreaded may be
With its might took the vigour
Left you abandoned
Like a squeezed lemon peel
When I touched your bony fingers
As if sliding my hand with trembling nerves
Over some velvet veiled thorns
Tear dropped down over my fingers
Inadvertently I counted, believe me
There were more than two drops
Leave me! You said
With a pounding heart and choked voice
I nodded my head
For making you to take some solace
Was it your body, the mundane pleasure
That attracted me
To be more closer
Like a honey bee I moved in a circle
Escorted you followed you
And then converted into a co-walker
Do you think my dear
That was only for mundane pleasure
To conceal your bony structure
That had taken failed attempt
It’s your skin, no muscles no fat
I plant a kiss there you see
You might have lost your beauty
But you’re destined for me
