Secret Wish

If we could wade through time to reach to moments we cherish....

If I could trap you in the cage of time
and keep you in the moistness of my palm
I would have you forever...

I would then pass moments with you
and stroll back to them at my own ease....

On mornings when the Sun excludes me
from its beneficiary
I would walk into the moment that is trapped within your embrace,
On evenings that are rout with the day’s vagaries
I would sneak into the evening,
that lay in its magnanimous expanse
with a sanguinary glow,
as we lay on the terrace
waiting for a plane to pass overhead.

In the scorching reality of flagrant resentment
how simple would be that night
when I had nothing but you for a blanket

How poignant would be that first touch
when I'm trapped in times clutches.... sitting all alone
