In a Naked River of Desire
Most of times I have no body
and sometimes I leave my soul
Melting evenings float in a blue sky
and the air wears a thicket of perfumes
There has been a distance quite widening
Pains are ingrained in my heart
Paintings of him exploring your beauty
and your body in his hands
floating like a seamless paper
This sky has no stars in it
This earth floats on my chest
The water has blood red mosses and no greens
in a naked river of desire.
