BURNT

Autumn leaves strewn on the road,

An early morning sun shone in the deep blue sky,

Wearing a bright yellow dress, bearing autumn’s colour,

Her each step cadenced with every heart beat of mine,

The night black eyes looked into mine, making me tremble with delight,

Roles crossed paths and in my direction came the proposal,

Burning desires charged me with the passion to kiss her,

Reality merged with imagination and the pink delicate lips tied my body with nooses of ardour,

Motionless, finding comfort in her succulent lips, i was transformed transfixed and transported,

To the eternal world of magnificent love.

Days never became night without seeing her,

Nights never became day without satisfying her,

Mind eluded my control to resist her absence,

The love we shared, the lust we relished, the affection we savoured,

Made the gods of love rouse with jealousy.

I was lost in her, floating on the eternal world of magnificent love.

It was her birthday,

A beautiful black gown tucked under my arm, walked towards her,

A few steps away from her,

Stepping up to hold her cheeks,

My hand touched nothing but air.

The gods of love executed vengeance,

The bus had her crushed into diminutive bits,

My eyes failed to vindicate her demise,

She once appeared, giving me burning desires,

Now she has disappeared ...burning me forever....
