A Fiction

Beneath the layers of 

Untold words..

Under the debris of

Crumbled memories..

Somewhere within

You live..

You live, for the entire night..

In the absence of outer light..

Illuminated by your own glow

From you to me.. passion flow

Living together, with hues many

Transience if at all pain any..

Dreams lived in a pair of eyes..

Then, slowly night flies..

Day come in bosomed in tarnished ribs..

Gone is the night.. so leaves the dreams..

Light, light and light spread..

Leaving me and you dead..

Again a night shall choose to remain..

Into our goblets of sparkling wine..

Again we shall take our sips..

Locking our trembling lips..

Each night we live beyond..

Until day chooses to bring the end..

To us both, and our wonderful delight

And again, we wait, to live at night !
