A red/pink Opium Poppy (papaver somniferum) in flower. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
As you cupped my face in the palms of your hand,
I look into your eyes,
And i see the world in a grain of sand,
I see infinity in a wild flower,
As a promising love romances my heart for a life time,
Placing your lips on mine,
Sends a shock through my spine,
Drowsing me like an Opium,
Making me to obey as our hearts opined,
Becoming defenseless as i try to resist,
As our desire melt & flow like Red sea,
Exchanging air as we breath,
Colliding into one another, we got lost,
Deep in the ocean of love we were drown,
Hoping to remain lost till eternity.
