DAMNATION
Do not look me in the eyes and say goodbye.
I am not strong.
I have no hold over myself.
You are the lullaby I hear in the distant shores.
You are the tale that’s etched on my palm.
You are the pine in my eyes, the lamp that’s lit for
me.
Thus, do not look me in the eye and say goodbye.
I am not strong.
I have no hold over myself.
I cannot live without you.

HIDDING PLACE
In those raging flames of your eyes that
I find the calmness of dew drops.
In those burning arms of yours
that turn my craziness into obsession.
In those sizzling whispers and gasps of yours
That have plundered my heart.
In those chimes of your anklets and the glimmer
Of your bangles that do not let me sleep.
In those deep blue darkness that I only get to see
your Face
…………I want to hide.

REMEMBER
Remember us.
Remember why we burned.
Remember why in our heart, there will always
Be something to burn.
Remember the lips that have known your kisess,
The eyes that have beheld your reflection, and the
arms
That held you in the moonlight, when no one’s
around.
Remember the evening wind.
Remember the damned cold nights.
Remember the shade of trees.
Remember the ears that tingled at the
Sound of your footfall. Remember the nose that
reddened
in the smoke of your passion.
Remember us.
Remember why we burned,
Remember why in our hearts, there will always be
something to burn.

ORGY
When the fiery stars wield their spears over the dim
forest,
And the burning moon makes love to the naked sea.
When spring spins the pasture around and the
Nightingale stays up all night.
When the murmuring river has few of us
whom it whispers in the ear.
When no one is around but you and me,
…………….your tawny lips have to Kiss wet.
