Seething pressure cooker and scintillating coffee
fumes
She raises her hands to the cupboard in
search of sugar
“Why you up so early?”
His
voice still embracing the late night’s sleep
Still sniffing to get a whiff of her scent.
“Take me to the park…”
“Longing for a walk?”
“Longing since our love was a child”
“Alone?”
“No…with you!”
“Everything with me as usual!”
As he pulled her hard towards him
Her hands still wanted to search for -
Sugar and tea cups
Butter and butterflies
Romeo and Juliet!
She purposefully dodged the thought of park
and the walk
And bit the surfacing reservations to his
kisses
For next to her conscience in the park and the prolonging walk
There was a Narcissus’s lake
Which reflects her beauty
Only to make her know that
It’s not worth jumping!
It’s not as bewitching as HER beauty in HIS
eyes!
