Confused Poem by lalitha iyer

You touched me
in my dreams
I felt you
and let out screams
and when I woke up
you were near
and then I screamed
took it for a dream

Are you near
it is not clear
as I sit you next
you look an unseen text
and when I sleep
you slip into my hips
the flavour you love
i wonder all hours
dozing off dulled by colours
in my silences
u come as fragrances
I wonder are u true
or am I untrue
when I met you
under the College gate
my words choked
and questions blocked
how could I ask
do u swim
into my lands of dreams
when during encounters
you struggle with tenders.
