ALLURE
by Antonis Filippeos
I can’t reach you,
you are miles away,
but those cool leaves
from lambent lotuses that penetrate you
are mine.
I want to capture them for ever
in the overcast sky
and give them my name.
When I feel lonely,
to take heart of your smile,
to create in my mind two sacred worlds.
When I hear you, to become a river
of molten brass and flow
with the words that jump out of your lips;
to gather them
turning them to sweet arrival
to dedicate it to you at night
just before I fall asleep
with you figure gravened on the maps of mind
that magnetizes the poles of soul.
A beam of light I become
for you that I desire,
impetuous passion,
and if you ever come to touch me,
then I will surrender
without a fight,
without hesitation…
