Memories Poem by Pamuditha Zen Anjana

All of a sudden,
Heaven fell down on me
and when you spoke
I felt content, and my heart,
it skipped beats
literally…

Slowly,
the whole world faded
and faces became just blurs
the time froze in its tracks
and you stepped closer
closer than my own shadow

Arrived the butterflies
as your fragrance lingered
and mesmerized me
I inhaled you once
and I got devoted…

My love for you is the Earth
it's the blue sky, and
the universe put together
It's unwavering, unequivocal
and incontestable…

So, my dear memory collector;
I'll hold on to these until I die
precious and treasured
invaluable and cherished
and worth far more than my life…
