Fire and ice

Shwetalini Sonawane 1998 (Maharashtra)



Your fingers wrapped around my fingers.
Your touch feels like fire and ice
Like last night's leftover pizza
You taste like sugar and spice.

You often talk about your dreams and I can see it through your eyes
Lying beside you till sunrise

For all happy moments and all fighte
I crave for all those sleepless nights

You admire the mole on my chin and
 I can't resist
becoming one skin.

Honey you are made up of old books
My comfort zone
Like stardust
Apart from skin and bone
