AS YOU SLEEP

When the gods shall paint a rainbow
Across the arch of the sky
I shall tiptoe down your heart
Without a shout or a cry

You will not know my presence
As I shall be invisible, unseen
The only difference you will feel
Is the sublime glow in your being

What is it, you shall ask yourself
Why the reason for this ecstasy
Why the mind is not in control
With the heart in total supremacy

What makes you feel
The soft rhythm of a beat
Tiptoeing down your heart
Silently in your sleep

  1. I really liked this poem. I won’t dare to classify it. But then again, nothing is more sublime than love. To me it’s a poem of love. Thank you for expressing my unspelt feelings.
