Dream Poem by RAJ VIKRAM

Closer than ever before,
in the vicinity like never before,
a touch away, a whiff away
and wish away never would
for that's harakiri.

A moment of madness
it indeed may be,
but life giving it is
nurturing it is of hope
in its myriad hues.

Subsumed by its
sentience and by being
like a strange sentinel
stood guard to its sway
with reverberating effervescence.

Kisses danced with
gay abandon on the lips
parched by eons of
dreary droughts of
emotional viccisitudes.

So close, yet so far
the yearning to plant
the life in its essence in
those manes of eternity
mangled the senses.

Stood on and on in trance,
in levitating eternity.
Grasped by the power of
the moment in intransient
coitus with ecstasy.
