First Dance Poem by Neha Dua

First Dance

Rating: 5.0


Like an infant in the cradle
I rocked in his arms and penned this fable

The sweet lucid lyrics of the song
Made me forget right and wrong

He looked at me as if a rainbow in the sky
My heart skipped a beat and I felt so shy

My silky black hair acted as a veil
But his one touch and I let myself sail

He held me close and his lips touched mine
As if a thirsty soul tasted french wine

My fingers then reached his curly hair
Ang got entwined without care

I envisioned our future in those moments so pure
He is my soulmate my heart said for sure

The time should stand still was my wish
I know I was acting childish

One last embrace and that will be all
For I have to rush back before my dad's call

Mesmerized by the thought of that beautiful evening
I am writing this while his intoxicatins smell still lingering..

Very emotive piece of work, values that are now 'poetic' and not to be seen around us - and makes one yearn to go back to the media-influence free innocent days. 'For I have to rush back before my dad's call ' - There's so much love here as well. A straight 10/10 and my vote for your honest and beautiful work.
