Unnamed

-
Another one I have no idea where I found but have kept. Definitely not mine.

 I called to you in my sleep
But you weren't there
An empty space 
Beside me
I look for you
When I dream
But I never find you

 So you lay there
imagining my hand on you
my fingers digging into your flesh
mingling our scents into one
drawing you to me
nearer and nearer

 As my lips
trace
a fiery trail
down your neck

 I hope you understand 
that my heart is in your hand
I don't like where you're headed 
Don't squeeze it just because you want your dress scarletted

In the deserts of alienation, out of the expanses of distance and isolation's debris the fragrant jasmines and roses of your presence delicately blossom. Now from somewhere nearby, the warmth of your breath rises, smoldering forth an exotic perfume―gently, languorously. Now far-off, across the distant horizon, drop by shimmering drop, fall the gli...

Come As You Are by Rabindranath Tagore

-
Come as you are, forget appearances! Is your hair untamable, your part uneven, your bodice unfastened? Never mind. Come as you are, forget appearances! Skip with quicksilver steps across the grass. If your feet glisten with dew, if your anklets slip, if your beaded necklace slides off? Never mind. Skip with quicksilver steps across the grass. Do you see the clouds enveloping the sky? Flocks of cranes erupt from the riverbank, fitful gusts ruffle the fields, anxious cattle tremble in their stalls. Do you see the clouds enveloping the sky? You loiter in vain over your toilet lamp; it flickers and dies in the wind. Who will care that your eyelids have not been painted with lamp-black, when your pupils are darker than thunderstorms? You loiter in vain over your toilet lamp; it flickers and dies in the wind. Come as you are, forget appearances! If the wreath lies unwoven, who cares? If the bracelet is unfastened, let it fall. The sky grows dark; it is late. Come as you are, forget appearanc...

Section of Bhagavad Gita

-
I'm not sure where I found this section of the Bhagavad Gita, but I found it beautiful. Never was there a time when I did not exist. Nor you, nor all these kings, nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.
