TIMELESS: A LOVE STORY
Micropoetry by Mona Soorma

#1
She was made of moonlight, starry nights and soft, misty love. 
I don’t know when darkness became my favourite hour of the day!


#2
Like a snowflake upon a palm
Let me melt into you
Slowly
Slowly
Or at once!


#3
Write upon my skin 
Your promises 
With warm fingers, 
And with hot trailing breaths 
 Your dreams...


#4
He smiled 
And I could see
every star ever born
Shine in his eyes. 
He was the night sky
And I, the stargazer,
lost in his delights.


#5
In those stolen moments 
Of eloquent glances and shared smiles
I find my world
 

#6
Let’s dance to the
perfect symphony
of my breath-strings 
strumming to the
beat of your heart.
Crazy, crazy love!


#7
She came wearing a trail of fireflies and April blossoms
Intoxicating, as the fragrance of warm summer nights 
 
And I loved her so!


#8
His eyes were like an ocean, dark and deep
And I, a mermaid
Cavorting delightedly in its starry depths


#9
And they stood 
Wrapped in their own world 
Oblivious to the storm raging 
For their hearts carried 
A much greater chaos within


#10
God gave them a beautiful beginning
But he left the rest of the pages blank 
So they could write their own story
And they wrote tirelessly 
Of the ancient love
mirrored in their eyes….

~Fairy tales do come true.
