heart-a -staircase

desire••••

I could dissolve and dismantle both in your arms. Your concave dripping horizon. Here, sweet nectars of a word, alliteration efflorescences. Poultice killing ant-eaten wound. I put my oblong waist inside your palms to catch the last nights fits and sins, sinister. You breathe effortlessly, like a paper chewing the drops of rain, steadily and I watch you smoking naked. I shrink, cinnamon fingers dipped in writing as I paint you in my slivers of lost chills. I see you marking my territory, with hazelnuts and pepper, cracking one by one. You announce me your wild bitch.The galaxy ruptures between your words and my forehead mole. We are all sinners.
loss••••

I am awake, in the cauldrons of your magic that rubs my backbone, similar to the mountain ranges romancing with the sunshine. The spikes and fumes drove me madcap when my arm flew in the vapid motionless air. It was your A B S E N C E. The air balmy and dead. I roamed naked and baked naked. with my face sagging beyond the levels of my bosom. It was Saturday and your A B S E N C E.
healing••••

And, it is a fixation now. Crystal studded your eyes with my silhouette, marrying my body from that broken pale toe to my hair. I circle and hover my dandelion legs to sense the reality, the sun-baked air filled with our fabled romance and memories. The room is a temple and this is the reality.

  1. Let’s starts from the beginning ” I could dissolve and dismantle you in your arms” dissolve is normal poetic expression,but dismantling is very nice,kind of deep and if you go on body level it’s erotic too.. and the usage about alliteration is something new and very good in this paragraph,and next the best romantic line is ” I place my oblong waist in your inside your palm to catch last night fits and sins” wow,this is how woman do?? May be when she. Lobes she even gives her soul to man…loved this a lot💞..” you breath effortlessly like a ,paper chewing drops of rain” Spellbound with this imagery,I always want to learn this kind of imagery…and “I paint you in my silver lost chills” wonderful enough and too ecstatic…and ” you announce me your wild bitch” this is something new..but when I imagine man saying this woman,the is damn hotttt👌👌💗💗💗🔥🔥🔥🔥.And last line was beautiful when you expressed rupture of galaxies between words,this is what tow minds feel when they are intimate with each other…And second paragraph now “wake up in the cauldrons of magic…” this is too nice,because that is how person feels when he or she misses that person madly,like still in her or his thoughts,you took cauldrons and explained wonderfully. And one more line I loved in this was ” face sagging beyond the levels of bosom” this is the sadness expression telling in best way..loved it.,roaming baked naked is also good line.last paragraph about marring body from broken toes to hair is nice..and best line is “I circle and hover my dandelion legs to sense the reality, the sun-baked air filled with our fabled romance and memories. “. Loved it..sun naked air is something new…kudos for this beautiful whole post👍👍👍👌💝

  2. This is an absolute treat for my eyes and soul.To read about the passion, loss, and healing in the same poem is a bliss. I loved the way you have defined the passion and the eros.The line” like a paper chewing the drops of rain” says it all. How the absolute passions consume us whole.
    and well, we all are sinners to fall for that cardinal sin.
    For the loss, though I loved the phrase where you compare the back with the mountaintop romancing with the sunshine but the final line of the stanza defines the poignancy seeded in the poem.
    For the final healing part, I adore this line the most”The room is a temple and this is the reality.”
    that how the heart heals.
    Bravo Devika!! I love you to bits.
