There is a cloud around me
Cloud of a body scent
That got transferred
From your body
into mine- last night
Into my skin, mind, nostrils, and soul…
Making me mad of course
Just like musk…
I don’t want to
Run behind it
Neither do I want
To separate from it
Can I feel it forever…???

I don’t want to close my eyes
As I only see
Your face in darkness
And the very thought
That you are not with me now
Is sending a wave of pain
And fire down my spine

Your eyes closed tightly
Your senses all alert
Your heart pounding hard and loud
You were afraid of
Slightest of noise
And the casting shadows from outside
Even the sound of creatures
Around us was disturbing
My hoarse voice
And unrhythmic breathing
Were even more restless…
The cold metallic feels of
Your rings
Your anklet
Your ear-rings
Your necklace-
Were hotter than fire
The ticklish voice of your
And touch of your fingernails
Are still sending waves of excitement…
The memory of
The warmth of your body-
Trespassing thru the layers of fabric
Is still making me shiver…

The raising hair follicles
Under your neck
The emotion of
Your tightly closed fists
Over my shoulder and the meaning of
Hot and deep breath
Around my ears and cheek…

I can’t ever forget
The beads of perspiration
On your forehead
Your attention towards my queries
Raising body temperatures
The heaving breasts
Dry lips and throat
Hair entering my mouth
Clatter of teeth
Taste of saliva
Movement of
Hesitant hands and fingers-
Exploring - discovering
Deep geography of your body
Actions and imaginations
Going parallel
Certain boundaries broken-
New closeness created…

I still remember
The way
You used to
Lift up your face
Hidden under mine
To check whether
My eyes are closed or not
I was not ready to sleep
How could I?
When you were besides me
…so close
…so near
That your breath caressed my face
All the times
Your hair scattered over my chest
Feet entangled
Hand in hand
And especially when
We choose this night
To talk-not to sleep

Of my watch
Showing that
The time is passing away
Hour by hour
Slowly…slowly
Out of our grip
“The dawn is only moments away”
“Birds started chirping”
“Hey! Hear…people are walking outside”
But darkness was still there
Within the room and myself…

I don’t want to get up
For all these might be a dream
Which may shatter…
I am not ready
To loose all these so soon

The last night that passed

Is the most valuable asset for me…

I wish I could freeze it forever…
