BEAUTY IN TE EYE

Flying into the sky of my dreams
From the cage of life
She perch on branches and fields
Dainty bird that she is
While I am a spell bound statue
Staring at the world that she is forever

A flute of reed vibrant
With the music that she is
In this world’s stage

A stem with thorns
Decked with the rose that she is
In the garden of love

A harp with strings
Played by the nymph that she is
In a heaven of symphony

A drop of dew
On the lamp that she is
In the darkness of ignorance

A trail of footprints
Left by her delicate feet
On the sands of a desert

A spot of blemish
On her dainty desk
Radiant with the blush of beauty

Time never married this world
Their child-eternity is never born
And will never die
But if at all my love for you be madness
In the wildest of your dreams
Let me revel in an asylum of memories

As long as I live
Neither time, space nor consent
Is a barrier before my love for you

Break and break convention
World will be as how you want it
Dream and dream forever
Love will be as how you feel it

But, where are you my playmate
From dreams of yesterday
Where are the memories to cherish?
You are a kiss on desire’s cheek
My heart’s lone languish
In a solitary life
Love is a reflection
On time’s mirror
Becoming infinite
In between yesterday and today

While branches sway and leaves tremble
In the gust of cold wind
The sky embraces the earth
By drenching it with rain
To hold the concert of ripples
On the surface of every puddle
And the world shivers
Before the haunting music
Of thunder and lightening
Once the storm is over
The sun will come out
From clouds which were once dark
Until then, I will preserve my love
Within lines of verse
While I keep repeating certain lines
In poem after poem
As reflection are never the same
In every mirror
Like beauty in the eye of a beholder
