The reason

The Reason.

After sex, you never sleep next to me

Or sometimes you did. But today I see something different.

You are sitting on that mighty couch. We never even look at.

With that fixed gaze on me, smoking, lost in your thoughts.

The way you hold your cigarette, the way you sit with your arms on the rest.

Oh! And the intense look on your face.

I felt you undressing me with your eyes, but under the sheets naked I lie.

I see you thinking so deeply, I want to know what it is that keep you awake all night.

I want to know whether it’s about me.

I wish I could enter your mind and know what you are thinking.

In my mind its Jeff Buckley’s ‘lover you should come over here ‘playing.

“So I’ll wait for you.....and I’ll burn.”

You are sitting there all reckless and I still want more of you.

Reviews

[Rahul]

The story-line's very intense that makes the whole poetry full of 'Adultery'. Very vivid imagery you've expressed here through your deepen words. The truth's, In today's modern or 'Reckless' age, such poetry contains much value toward feelings, heartaches, & desperation of hearts. You make this poetry so easy-going... with the beams of you tantalized emotions as well. Moreover, quiet honestly, I consider this poetry a short scene of 'movie' that you've very well pen'd up... in disguise of poetry.

Congratulations for your first poetry &, of course, on its victory as well. Keep it up!

A review for a review seems only fair, first of all this is rather intense and thats a fantastic thing its so hard to pull off. The story is crisp a brief but echoes a deeper meaning. I look very much forward to seeing more of your work!

[CC Faye]

Very nice for a first poem. It's sweet and it's very reasonable. This poem expresses more about the desire of keeping each other, though something was stopping them.
It's short, yet it's splendid as if all the reason has been put in this poem.
Wonderful poem!
