Whose LOVE is Innocent?

-

By Karan w. Published 3 months ago 1 min read

‎Who dared pull you out of my being? 
‎Who peered at that dim thing?
‎Behind the shimmering layers of your Eyes?
‎Through them all my lies dies in open skies

‎Was it a childish longing—to make you mine? 
‎Or will it be imprisoned in the lust of my youth?
‎Before my fall— your laughter, your giggles, and that first smile’s majestic shine
‎Oh! what a sin— those promises, a burden of truth

‎Your company ignited my journey, in a world still nascent
‎Your tears are draining my spirit vacant
‎Where butterflies dance on roses- you stand magnificent
‎Tell me, whose love is innocent?

‎The sweetest chaos trapped in my heart
‎Something hides under your down lashes
‎Is this your Sacred art?
‎The silence was haunting; it left all things in ashes

‎Wherever your finger used to wander, it was a call to thrill—
‎My vision was captive in your hold so still
‎When you dreamt only in your sleep
‎I still remember that land of blossoms and peace so deep

‎Where bees sang and sipped flowers' nectar- you stand magnificent
‎Your company ignited my journey, in a world still nascent
‎But why present is not so pleasant
‎Tell me, whose love is innocent?

‎Remember the wondrous grasp of your little palm
‎No longer clutching toffees, berries, and candy cane?
‎The golden sparrow in your bag is your lucky charm
‎Please don’t take little pauses...I will run after you to steal them again

‎We drift toward strange desires ever so gently
‎How lonely is your heart and walk silently?
‎Why does the piggy bank of your remains empty
‎And...and you know that you were so testy?

‎To stand with you in every chaos, what a venture
‎How tender were your rules in that raw age
‎Where have you imprisoned that admirer of adventure?
‎Where is that time lost— who lies within that cage?
