"SHE" - Poem by Revathi Raj Iyer published in Singapore based Kitaab
She
My eyes refused to blink
Lest she might vanish
Softness of her flesh
Smooth and silky
Heaving of her chest
A quick rush of adrenalin
Blasphemy, my mind cried….
Rose bud eyes
Closed in deep thought
Luscious lips pursed
Pencil caught within
A gong, her eyes fluttered open
I lowered mine
Blasphemy, my mind cried….
She came towards me
Hips swayed, thighs bobbed
I stole a glance
Our eyes met
I shut mine tight
Baffled, shy, afraid
Blasphemy, my mind cried….
A deep breath, I inhaled
The aura of jasmine
She halted
I held my breath
The aura lingered
She was gone, I exhaled
Blasphemy, my mind cried….
“Hurry up,” girl!
Her voice beckoned
I opened my eyes
The classroom empty
On my desk
Lay a scrap of paper
Blasphemy, my mind cried….
My hands trembled
A blank white paper
I stared, confused
I turned around
There she was
A smile, a tease
Blasphemy, my mind cried…
I was at the door
Eyes downcast
“Good day madam,” I said
She embraced me tight
I quivered like a leaf
Wrenched free, ran as hell
Blasphemy my mind cried again and
again…..
First published in Kitaab, Singapore. Thank You!
