I give myself to you

from an endearing spring morning to a starlit night

I grow from this earth where the wildflowers grow with the blossoms
My ivy limbs extend from this soil when the sun kisses me hello
While I feel lost, you become my support from the root, branching out florets
I am now Spring, a Monet delight, wielding fragrances from my soul
A petal here, a leaf there, evolving into an intertwined oneness
One supporting another, we evince into an inseparable entity
My flowered desire embraces your unhappy happiness
You become the wind beneath my wings of trauma
This gold-dusted sky is the validation of our enchantment
Sprinkling dazzle on our orchard springing with magical moments,
I had wished for the moon, for your love is carved from the stars
I knit my soul with stardust when we meet past our dreams
And your star-kissed hands coruscate paradise in my yearning eyes
I breathe love into you when I see the clouds making love with the cosmos
Drenching in the following rain, we soak our souls with aqua colours
Beholding, I breathe prayers for the salvation of our reverence
Tied with you in an eternal embrace, a bliss from the heavens

This poem delves into the importance of love which stands by your side in the most stormy phases of your life, which finds you when you are lost in the dark wilderness and which you will never choose to leave till you breathe.

Let’s celebrate love by sharing a few claps.

Thanks for reading my work!
