Let me kiss you Irma!



There in the middle, in the space between the light and dark,
Let me love you in the corners bright,
Where your heart beat is the mark,
To guide me through the mist of time with all my might,
Because my love it is you that spreads like brightness in my world,
Where your memories cast everlasting light,
On the darkest and desolate corners of my world,
And then fills me with the spirit to fight,
All my demons and my fears,
Your simple look offers me endless joy,
As my existence the drapery of your brightness wears,
And I begin to foil life’s every ploy,
To oust me from my dominion, that is mine,
But little does it know one can never steal the scent from the rose,
And your memories that enrich me, become my goldmine,
Granting me courage that before the brightest flash of life, I may put up my best pose,
So come let me bear you in my arms,
Let me kiss you like the night kisses everything beyond those shadows,
And as my heart with these beautiful feelings warms,
Let me offer smiles to the life’s marooned widows,
Who have moaned enough and grieved a lot,
Let me kiss you and then wage the war,
Between the right and the evil in the reality’s merciless plot,
It may happen that then stars that seem too far,
Would tumble from the skies,
To bury the evil in the star dust,
But let us tread with caution for haste is only good when catching flies,
For lovers always do what they must,
It is the destiny of love and maybe the price of the kiss,
That we all pay for with  our heart beats,
So let me hold you in my arms and feel my real bliss,
Before my fate confronts the destiny and my courage both of them meets,
In the open playground of life and chance,
Where the truthful and the valiant always wins,
Because it is a well coordinated dance,
Where one always has to win though it is a competition between the twins,
So kiss me and wish for my victory,
Because through me you shall win too,
As we are cast in the life’s endless trajectory,
Where there shall always be one constant Irma, that, I love you,
So, let the stars bear witness to valour of love,
And as you kiss me, let the stars tumble from the skies,
Then let no one seek the Heavens above,
Because for our love, our passions and joys, here is where a lover dies,
And this is where Christ died,
This is where crusades were waged,
This is where goodness was promoted and this is where Judas lied,
And this is where lovers are caged,
So let our battles of love be fought here,
For a kiss, for a warm embrace, for a sweet memory’s sake,
Then as I see you and your beauty everywhere,
Let me love you forever for love’s and my own sake,
Tonight when the sky shall be lit with many a twinkling star,
I shall wait under the open sky and the moonlight,
And as my eyes behold their darling most star,
We shall then be the shadows in the darkness secretly kissing our heart beats in the cover of the night.
To cast particles of darkness and cover the moonlight,
And make it a part of our own shadows,
Then we shall create a romantic night,
As we freely fleet across the night’s endless love meadows.

I have been writing poems for several years now. And my passion for poetry goes back to my school days, when I encountered Wordsworth's famous poem Daffodils, and I instantly fell in love with it, and the poet in me woke up. Since then I have been experiencing a wakeful poetic bliss! more…
