FATHOMLESS

The moon-drunk rays caress your face
Imparting a surreal aura
Creating new interpretations
Of the fleeting zones of liminality

For the slightest of moves on your part
A half smile, a twitch of your lips
A hum in your voice
Or a flutter in your heart

Generates a new connotation of beauty
Which lasts but only for a brief moment
Before coalescing seamlessly
Into your incessant procession of varying moods

It seems, as if I know you this instant
Only to unknow you in the next
The mystery of a lifetime
For me to perpetually savour and keep

Is it the moon which fabricates this magic, or is it you
I shall never fathom
Wishing for it to remain fathomless
Everlastingly, enchantingly and forever

  1. This is as much about your spirituality as it is about her beauty (can I assume it is a she you are talking about?)…the inner you is able to stand apart from the physical you that feels and record every emotion so delicately. Beautiful Subir?
