My Youth Poem by AJAYA BOHIDAR

Yesternight
With me
Was she
Sharing the
Table
Food
Talk
Thought
And suddenly
I experienced
A feeling
My youth
Vanishing

I sat
Lips tied
I tried
But failed
Expressing
My feelings
She gazed
She stared
Her eyes
Her look
Her lips
Her smile
Her silence
And the witness
Was me

She
A knock out
Delight to male eye
All of a sudden
She offered me
Not cheese
But her cheek
Seal it
She said
I began to feel sticky
Sticky all over
With patches of perspiration
From my face
To my waist
My shirt clung to me
Like a bandage of adhesive

She left
With fire
In her eye
My eyes
Followed her
My mind
Flew with her
My legs
Lost control
I went
On and on
I searched for you
My youth
Within and without

You gave me
Words
To reside
In me
Till comes
My end
But you deserted
The moment
I needed you
Most
Yesternight
Very badly
Indeed

My youth
To you
I was unknown
God directed
I came
Your touch
Brought change
The magic
Of your touch
Filled me
With joy
The rose
Wore beauty
The smile
Gave pleasure
The touch
Stirred my heart
But today
Nothing stimulates

Oh my youth
I assure
You will get
The attention
You deserve
The pleasure
You demand
Leave me not
Lead me
Or I will fall
A fall
Of no return

Be still
My heart
Away with pain
Though passion stirs again
For youth is certain to come
In a better form
