Solitary Love Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

The God in you
So manifest
Soul is soul
The mystic in me
To ponder the white
Black in detail
Adored with milk
Rosewater and bath
Turkish from Vedas
Ancient and now

In ecstasy you want
See through tips
Like glaciers cold
My searching hand
In the silk of your thighs
What meets the eyes
Odor feminine

In taste who says
Honey or nectar
Feel the strength
For your inviting lips
Sublime why
Illusion itself

Don’t take me to the end
Stars you see
In daylight
That beauty as it lay spread
Deserts small and oceans drops
Universe in your eyes
When God I play
And with hands I remake
You again
