As always, am trying different things that catch my fancy, and no one including me knows how long any of these fancies last. But enjoy I have learnt, for as long as they last.
A repost of an older post, this time with audio.
Stay.
Stay
Just a bit longer, stay
I want to kiss you once more
The night as a witness to our desire
Hush,
Close your eyes,
Can you feel me?
Like I did just hours ago
In the silence of my darkness
Your breath as my beacon
I caress you with my fingertips
Stay
Just a bit longer
Make love to me once more
Brushing wavy tendrils away
Your stubble grazes my chin
A passion on a sway
Yet again
Your lips cradled in mine
In the crescendo of our heartbeats
Your voice as my refuge
I echo you with my eyes
Stay
Just a bit longer, stay
I want to kiss you once more
The night’s growing old
Dawn’s stealing quietly through
My spine feels a cold
Hold on, don’t let go
In the warmth of this raging amour
My dream as my anchor
I shut my eyes tight
As you must know
I wake with the dawn,
Poof!
There you go.
Stay
Just a bit longer
Make love to me once more
Well, I hope this fancy lasts. It was great to hear you reading the poem.
Thanks MuteO. Appreciate the feedback. Was a little antsy.
Nice. Specially for people like me who can't read poems but can hear them for as long as possible
Keep it up. 🙂
I used to be that way with poems as a child. Am glad that poetry warmed up to me as I grew.
Thanks 🙂
Superb. And superbly narrated!
Beautiful!!

Naren, Smita : Thank you 🙂
I think its done well 🙂
heh, like you'd say anything else? 🙂
I would. Through some other medium, perhaps!
nice verses.
a li'l feeling wud have lifted the recitation too.
gud stuff!
Beautiful! And you reciting the poem made it only better. Just proves my belief that emotions are better conveyed through voice than words over distance. Hope to see more of this soon 🙂
Thanks Nikki, been awhile since I've seen you. Am trying this out, not sure how long or what I'd do, but it's been a fun experience so far 🙂
