Let it flow

Even if I am in a state where I am schizophrenic, I'll be loving you. 

So let it flow. Let love flow.

Today and tonight. 
Midnight and mid-day. 

Let it flow with each pulse. 
From my palm to your wrist. 

From me to you, who I've been in love with 
All this while 
While you've been elsewhere 
In your own heaven and hell 
And Earth in between.

When our love's lake was frozen still
I bloomed as your lotus 
With my leaves detached from your water.

May I say that I miss you? At times?

Imprisoners of time that we are... 
Few more moments with you won't hurt
Neither you, neither me, nor my love.

Can love be so liberating yet tied up? Together?

Will it always be you in me and me in you? 
Afar?

Please hold my hand as I close my eyes 
And take my last breath
My last sip
My last dip in the holy river.

Don't worry, 'cause I'll die soon in your arms. 
My body will be
Carried away on this hammock of our dreams.

Not a day goes by 
Without you haunting my mindspace and heartscape
Without you knocking me down. 

Not a night goes by 
That I don't feel your moist skin,
Your warm touch,
Your deep sighs. 

Not a morning comes by 
Without me wishing...
For your love,
Mysterious like you but eccentric like me.
