You die; I die - Love Poems - Part 2

by Nikhil Parekh

  inserting their venomous tentacles into my cheeks.

  Even if you felt a little suffocated; wading through the claustrophobic

  queues for the railway ticket,

  That very moment I would relinquish breath in perpetual entirety; and

  my heart would cease to throb in its cavity.

  All this is because you are the only person I have profoundly loved

  in my life sweetheart; the only deity I worship and adore,

  And as every breath of yours unleashes; mine gets automatically a million times faster.

 

 

  33. I WOULD STILL CONSIDER MYSELF THE RICHEST 

   

  Even if you possessed a plethora of thoroughbred horses; galloping

  handsomely through moist paddy fields,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of

  drowning my persona into the cascade of her silken hair.

  Even if you had a palace profusely embedded with gold; dungeons replete

  with scores of glittering diamonds,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I could tickle the mesmerizing skin of her cheek; sending inexplicable shivers down my spine.

  Even if you possessed swanky cars to philander across the countryside;

  a fleet of helicopters following you at close quarters,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had her ravishing

  breath caressing my neck; catapulting me into waves of tumultuous rhapsody.

  Even if you possessed a private swimming pool; impregnated with crystal

  spring water from the mountains to bathe in,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of

  sighting my reflection in her glistening tears.

  Even if you possessed a pair of fur coated shoes; with exquisite

  leather studded commensurately at all quarters,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of

  lying in complete surrender at the pair of her dainty feet.

  Even if you possessed a flurry of maids to serve you dinner; ornate

  glasses embellished with pearls to drink opulent wine,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of

  masticating boiled rice prepared fresh by her sacrosanct hands.

  Even if you had a colossal assemblage of people spuriously worshipping

  you; applauding you wholesomely for your most minuscule of deed,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of

  witnessing her ingratiating smile; which grew distinctly large as she

  spotted me.

  Even if you had a conglomerate of effeminate statues; sculptured to immaculate perfection; molded out of molten wax and draped with the richest quality of silk,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of embracing her impeccable demeanor in entirety.

  Even if you had a sword embodied with iridescent jewels; which you placed in a

  scabbard made of rustic panther skin,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the audacity to confront any power in this world; simply uttering your enchanting name.

  Even if you had a gargantuan basket of roses; extravagantly stashed with

  flowers from all round the globe,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of absorbing the essence of golden sweat which dribbled from her body.

  Even if you possessed flamboyant pairs of sunglasses; embodied with jugglery

  of enthusing designs; and gaudy strips of plastic,

  I would still consider myself the richest; as I had the privilege of viewing

  my reflection in her emphatic eyes.

  Even if you possessed the tangiest of toothpaste; incorporated in garish

  interiors of an ostentatious bottle,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of appreciating the scintillating armory of her teeth.

  Even if you possessed a golden band fudged with sapphire emeralds; dipped in

  an ocean of honey,

  I would still consider myself as the richest; as I had the privilege of being

  slapped by her delectable hands.

  And even if you procured the entire wealth in this world; owning every dwelling protruding from the surface of earth,

  I would still consider myself the richest man on earth; as your affluence

  miserably floundered to purchase her; while I had the privilege of possessing

  her in mind; body and soul; perpetually till the time she tangibly existed.

  35. WHILE PASSING BY HER HOUSE 

  While philandering through the bustling traffic streets; the most conspicuous

  thing that caught my eye; was obnoxious clouds of derogatory smoke rising in

  the air,

  While strolling past the sea shore; the most conspicuous thing that caught my

  eye; was swirling waves breaking down into infinite granules of froth after

  striking the rocks,

  While gallivanting on a horse through the meandering mountain lanes; the most

  conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was unsurpassable depth of the panoramic

  valley,

  While ambling languidly through a lush green cricket field; the most conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was an ensemble of polished stumps well embedded in the ground,

  While trespassing through the vivacious circus grounds; the most conspicuous

  thing that caught my eye; was garishly attired ludicrous clowns,

  While walking gingerly on a frayed rope; the most conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was the tall board fluttering high and highlighting finish,

  While soaring at astronomical heights from the ground in an airplane; the most

  conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was the boundless expanse of misty white

  clouds,

  While penning down intricate lines of literature; the most conspicuous thing

  that caught my eye; was a table of sparkling mahogany wood on which were

  placed the bulky sheaf of paper,

  While swimming underwater with an assemblage of opalescent green permeating

  into my eyes; the most conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was the preposterously huge shark gliding past at whisker lengths from my persona,

  While clambering up the steep mountain; the most conspicuous thing that caught

  my eye; was fiery body of sun profoundly illuminating the sky,

  While sipping sizzling tea from the triangular shaped paper cup; the most

  conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was the rustic brown liquid incarcerated

  within; in gay abandon,

  While dangling from the elastic branches of a densely foliated tree; the most

  conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was the catacombed hive; inhabited by

  the obstreperously humming bee,

  While lying sprawled on a bed of pudgy and redolent grass; the most conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was a blanket of mesmerizing stars scintillating vividly in the crystal clear sky,

  While riding on a hunch backed camel tightly straddled to its sides; the most

  conspicuous thing that caught my eye; was emphatic contours of her enamouring

  face; the stupendous beauty hidden well within her glistening eyes.

  36. YOU CAN NEVER BREAK OUR PERPETUAL LOVE 

  In order to break the scented flower; they crushed it indiscriminately

  with their large and bohemian feet,

  In order to break the fortified edifice; they blasted it with pugnacious dynamite; to send it crumbling like a pack of silken cards towards the obdurate ground,

  In order to break the inflated balloon; they pricked it with a rusty

  iron pin to ev
acuate tones of stale air incarcerated inside,

  In order to break the soft mountain of pudgy mud; they punched it hard

  in the midriff; with their callous hands,

  In order to break through the computer; they invented ingenious ways

  and means to decipher its enigmatic password,

  In order to break the solid log of dried timber wood; they used a

  serrated edged metallic saw; ruthlessly slicing through its body,

  In order to break the slender candle of wax; they melted it in

  crackling flames; leaping rampantly from the kitchen fire,

  In order to break long shards of pellucid glass; they smashed them against jagged rocks; sending them flying into infinitesimal splinters all around,
