love in paradise

A Poem by Pankaj Lohia

In the wilderness of this night
I see the stars shining bright
The touch of her skin just feels right
Her sublime beauty that lies before my eyes
More mesmeric than any in sight

Her sparkling gaze in the dark
Bound by her flawlessness
I succumbed to her immaculate love
In the world outside I felt so lost
my skin, comfortably numb.

As we spun from dusk to dawn
She lay there resting her head on me
The sun, the moon, the stars all together
Stared in melancholy, I looked back with pride
Yes she's mine!!

As her eyes shut, he gawked upon her
Thanked the world for giving him, her
Nothing before ever felt so sweet
She opened her eyes and whispered
It's time for us to leave...
