Linger

[dibyendra]

The ashen sky kept pouring the rain.
It seems it will rain forever.
Yet I have to go.

Passion runs high. Love is
mystical, wrapped with
emotions. This heart anticipates
for you. So desperate to see you.

There you are,
standing, lingering,
in the cold evening. I see
an undying patience in your eyes.

Demure smile of yours,
leaves me speechless. The silence
melts in your warm embrace
into tears of joy.

The subtlety in your affectionate touch
vivifies my soul, and your afterglow,
which lingers on, even after
we bid adieu to each other.

Beautiful imagery with such moving feeling, of both tenderness and sensuality.
