balm of love

light-flooded night killed all the stars
the sparkle of moist lips brightened up a million

winter is slowly moving to summer’s warmth
and with you I fancy them both together

the waves seem tranquil at horizon’s vanishing point
no sky and ocean but shades of warmth together

you seem to hold the cosmos in your parted lips
and we forget the boundaries of an all sponsored world

  1. "and with you I fancy them both together" and then, "you seem to hold the cosmos in your parted lips": That's romance in its perfection. A lovely verse, Sreeja.

  4. Too bad the "light-flooded night killed all the stars," but nice that the couple seem starry-eyed anyway :-)

  5. A fun read, Sreeja. Yes, it is easy to forget the boundaries of the world when kissing in embrace. Hmmm.

  7. "light-flooded night killed all the stars"

    Your opening line reports so aptly the egotism of lovers, for being totally absorbed in each other, all else is nothing.
    Thanks for dropping by my blog sreeja
