Temptation
Love rains on me
When you look my way
The tiny droplets of sweat
Streamline into one big desire
And run down my temple
Go away from me.
I heard the moon rising
And remembered your face
The moonshine was all yellow
It had no strawberry stains
Like your rain-kissed lips
Unbelong to me.
There is a dead-lock
When the mind cannot reason
The music of the heart
The typhoon swirls
With blind ambition to destroy
And then to create a natural holocaust
Until it submerges with contentment
– Like storm-swept lovers
On the sands of memories.
