Poems by R. Ariffin : 10 / 73
Black Cherry Eyes
The sweet flummoxing of her eyes;
Is the celestial surrendering of mine
I lost myself in, my sense of existence;
Every time those eyes and my heart entwine
The bountiful spectacle of her eyes;
Are the doors to my heart’s aberration
I burn myself again and again, effortlessly;
Every time those eyes smile in satisfaction
Her majestic black cherry eyes;
Are my white and grey as what my eyes see
The sweet blackness of her shine;
Is my whole universe wrapped in melancholy
