Eila Mahima Jaipaul Poems

I'll crawl back to my hole
not wounded
but curious
questions bubble
...

Like grass
after the winters storms have passed
and the first wisps
of spring have come
...

go easy when you pass through me
things are different inside than out
it is like looking
through a large piece of smoked glass
...

shall I allow you to leave me
even in your dreams
you'll not try to escape me.
love me, Love,
...

at least
you know
you're making love
to someone
...

Feel me close, love
I am above you
Around you
Upon you
...

this is how my kiss occurs in absences;
with lips half opened
with words assembled in desire and promise.
...

25 cent puzzle
bought at a garage sale
found among broken toys
paper back books
...

I cared for you when my heart told me not to
I felt for you when I knew you did not feel for me
I ignored my fears when I should have listened
I cried for you when I knew you wouldn't cry for me
...

each thread is chosen carefully
you,
desire,
passion and love
...
