Lighter Side Of Dark Fantasies Poem by Avik Datta Gupta

You have kept your dark side in darkness
That's why you are charming
You stay far away, out of reach
That's why you are sought for
These eyes could not find a flaw
And millions call you an eye candy
You know the truth of your beauty
But who's bothered about your true look
We see what you show us
What you want us to behold
Making our eyes crave for your darker part
The part of you that sinned.

Our eyes have been cheated
Our senses have been outwitted
Whatever we realized were false
A wrong decision taken in an infatuated impulse
You show up disrobed at the still of the night
And sometimes you are stark
And sometimes we get a peeping sight
Before you hide get hidden in the dark
The hue of your beauty is borrowed
Perhaps that thought has muted you
Your silence is mesmerizing
So we moon on at the night sky
Yearning for your presence dying for the sight
Oh Moon! dear Moon! over this sleepless night
