the swimming pool

eyes that laughed and cried and fulfilled the moon's embrace in one glance
I turned away the first time, but remembered
and by then it wasn't log before confusion set in

Next time, it was open to freedom, as I sat still in the squirming that told me 'Yes' this time.....

you dived in, watching me

I looked up, shyly in the center of my being

knowing

this was real

and so i died into the reality of Love in this moment,

knowing it might never last, but here, I felt so Free

that laughing
we ate gulab jamun

and I escaped into the horizon

One more time.
