In windy nights when the world
retires to the huts-holes-hells
I carry my follicle of light and
go on solitary walks leaving a wake
of empty notes which dry upon contact
dying in small bursts-melting into the  
crust of earth-unable to tell stories
The light glows dim-distant-morbid upto  
some extent without the familiar-the  
habitual-touch-scent-sound-smile of  
you and I can't castigate it for
I comprehend this lightless state
well enough myself-being in utter
darkness myself without you-even
if for a single night-the want
within me-to wrest you locking
my limbs around like vines and  
not letting you go until we  
carry more of each other-in
our being-in tiny breaths
and conjoined memories of
momentous glories-this  
want grows like an  
ancient hunger and
I don't want to
make it stop-
not this time
and rather I
want it to  
take charge
of me and
then take
charge of
you-this
one time
and then
we can  
always
wake  
up
in
the
arms of
each other
aglow-joyous
like children-
naked-parched-
spent-beautiful-
more than ever before
and upon discovery by
others we can always
pretend to be asleep
till we feel the
follicle glow
and grow into
a giant white
ball-of
tangible
beauty
within
us-born
of us
to keep
us one-
timeless.
