I met you behind <br />those secret veils <br />our soft romance <br />was a disappearing shadow <br />yet it had iron wings <br />in baroque designs <br />when the sky <br />covered me like a cloth. <br /> <br />You were the stars <br />my hydrogen jewelry <br />my red pajamas loosened <br />and you laughed in circlets <br />those ticklish breaths <br />of winter leaves. <br /> <br />they still nestle <br />on my shoulders and fingertips <br />like checkered suns, <br />forgotten sins <br />you were tightly <br />wrapped in my palm <br />rolled capsules and sushi rice. <br /> <br />and when in the night <br />I'm unaware <br />or simply dead sea silent, <br />your voice creates its ripples <br />within me. <br /> <br /> <br />****** <br /> <br />I was jazz <br />to your ears, <br />I heard your broken notes <br />joined them in toccatas <br />so you were smiling <br />violets of garden silt <br />when I choked in you. <br /> <br />I looked into your eyes <br />twinkle like a flame <br />and became <br />a fallen eyelash <br />in your lucid unconscious. <br /> <br />I met you <br />with the pink corals counting, <br />rain drops were nacre pearls, <br />your heart was still open <br />like a child's mouth, <br />and I entered it <br />through your skin. <br /> <br />so then in the night <br />when you are unaware, <br />or your eyes <br />are simply Pluto calm, <br />I sit peaceful, creating beats <br />within you. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> **** <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />****<br /><br />Saberi Roy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/oracle-by-midnight/
