THE ILLUSIVE CIRCLES - -

something like this, you're included in 

the rhythm of life, that in the 

nebulous darkness 

of evening 

too,

a beautiful feeling emerges from the -

exhausted body and mind, in 

the faraway, above the

woodland path, 

some 

flicker of fireflies invites innovative - - - 

dreams, unnamed flowers

of grove creates the 

illusive circles

of odor !

someone secretly knocks the door of 

latent passion, the heart seems 

releasing itself from the 

grip of persona, 

an opiate

unknown stirs the surface of tranquil - - 

emotion - -

HARD TO SAY - -

beloved, do not try to tie me in your 

unknown lanyard of affection,

some unexplored 

destination

of life,

still I've to recognize, do not know -

what's that invisible vibe, often

it mesmerized the 

body and 

mind, 

a solitary lamp of cloister, burns it -

self before the nightfall, the 

melody of darkness 

awakes with 

some 

passionate emotion, I know, it's - -

your love which doesn't

permit to adopt 

the reclusion,

life - -

returns with empty hands, there's no

solution to escape, from 

your spellbound 

attraction,

that's 

appeal of body or heart, hard to say,

THE SILENT PERSUASION - -

I've news, perhaps you've had long-standing,

did you see the sun sets, or not, some 

colors that were left by gloomy 

evening, some chances 

to meet the soul, 

few hopes 

to feel

my distressed emotion, I think still in your - - 

heart, the smoldering attachment is 

remained with diffuse way, the

darkness, therefore slowly 

becoming aromatic,

and that's the

reason,  

life doesn't wither, calls repeatedly to the - -

distent dreams of remaining oclock !

SOMEWHERE VERY NEAR TO YOU - -

the ultimate shine wasn't the persona,

still my breath is flammable, if 

you wish, turn off the 

chandelier,

the elusive night has its own claims - - 

let it be thirsty, in that desire 

implicit an infinite 

affection !

your love has an unending fascination, 

a musky conjuration, which drags 

towards the labyrinth path 

of dense wilderness,

it's the game 

of prey 

and predator, the show should be - - - 

continued, that's sign of 

survival - -

THE COMPLETENESS - -

light without flame, neither sun 

nor moon or star, but 

highlighted 

conscience, unknown touch - -

creates a complete male,

neither familiar 

nor alien,

the affinity across the somatic -

relationship, undefined

cognition which 

forces to 

think for others, a sense to feel 

the pain of others, besides 

himself, makes the 

person of blood 

and flesh,

in form

of divine beauty, that symbol of

replete virility allures the 

entire world in his 

chest, infinite

love of

devoid definition changes the - 

body and mind with the 

sacred dew drops 

of the unseen 

blessing,

THE CRYPTO - LANE - -

amid the real and fake, the calibration was 

difficult, flavin of their affection often

confused the conscience, the

selection faded very 

quickly, cursing

the fate 

wasn't the solution, hence life again signed

the letter of treaty, several times we

haven't crypto-lane, escaping 

wasn't easy, so no other

way to accept 

the fact, 

in that corner where once I've lost my heart,

maybe still, there's a tree of bare

twigs, looking towards the 

a glimpse of spring,

or a vase of 

raw clay,

with a slight touch of breeze fallen down - -

THE HIDDEN BEAUTY - -

you'll never understand, the words of 

heart, without a script or the 

alphabets it says all  

synopsis, those

droplets

weren't the dewy touch or the glow -

of unobtainable pearl, feeling 

of love for someone 

emerges from

the sea

of eyes, even though dipped into the 

saline humidity, it shines with 

hidden beauty, creates 

infinite bonds in 

a short 

moment, how much someone has - - 

assimilated in that illumination,

hard to say, it depends

only the perception

of an 

individual, how deep is the ocean 

of emotion - -

THE UNDERLINED EMOTION - -

intensive silent, desolate path, moony 

evening, but your presence in the 

life, makes the difference, 

emotion blooms 

with some 

possibilities, a drenched feeling tries

to overcome the flaming fire of 

pain and sorrow, disdain 

of time, disapproval

of world, all

together,

though chase to the persona, however

I don't know why, the lively emotion

never sinks into the megrims,

life explores imminently 

some underlined

mysteries,

some 

beautiful moments of your love, some

fragile touch, few sever embrace, 

silenced stories of the 

quivering lips,

many 

more unmentioned swirl of emotions !

THE BILK OF SHADOW - -

many times it's happened, a mutism  

itself says the inner agony, 

despite wishing to 

stop the spill

of eyes,

the 

face proclaims all sotto emotion, the 

life searches the transient 

console, sometimes 

in eyes of 

alien,

sometimes among the familiar faces,

it's again the matter of fate,

before sinking the stars 

the caravan gets

the address

of inn 

or not ! the exploring of someone your

own isn't difficult but it's not

necessary that heart 

will match with

stranger,

an uncertainty always existed in travel,

shacking the hands with 

somebody, doesn't

mean that it's

infinite 

agreement to walk together for entire - 

night, who knows in which 

turn, the shadow

will bilk !
