Like Vibrant Reef

Shantanu Baruah's avatarConfab With Me

When you decide to rush into my life,
You never ever brace my soul,
rattling my dormant bee-hive.

And when you sometime caress my lips,
In that moment you take away,
Each one of my disbelief.

And then one day you resolve to swiftly vanish,
And with you,
You take away the love that I naively brandish.

And now that you are gone,
I don’t know why?
I feel I still dwell,
In some enchanting dream,
Far away from this world,
In a turquoise lit vibrant reef.
