Tonight

Tonight, 
Let me show you my skin
And what lies beneath!

and tonight,
Let me seize your heart
And trap it in my breath!

and tonight,
Let me touch your soul
From the silk of my body!

and tonight,
Let me burn your uncertainties
From the warmth of my love!

and tonight,
Let the Phoenix emerge
From the ashes we just produced!

and tonight,
Just you and me
And the Phoenix
Let's fly to the moon and back!

  2. Hi Preetika,
    Your poem was very moving...the sensuality hits me deeply. Would it be possible to translate some of your Hindi poems into english. I put one through google translate and it was very beautiful as well, though I'm not sure how accurate it is and a few words didn't come out right.


    Anyway thanks for sharing your wonderful writing.

    Best wishes,
    Chris
