R.K Das - Here and Now

I adore your loveliness
Within the boundaries
Of my ordinary eyes,
Within the bound
Of an unbound ocean,
Within the reach
Of a receding horizon.

I hear your words of beauty
Within the audible range
Of my mortal ears,
For your words reverberate
Long after you speak
On the inner walls of my soul.

I smell your passionate breath
With the certitude
Of an irrepressible jasmine,
For I am not the Himalayan deer
To be misled by my own musk.

I love you
With the immediacy
Of here and how,
For I know not
What lies beyond
Or beneath.

R.K Das
