Recede Frommyheart Poem by Rajendran Muthiah

Keep out of my sight, Cheetah dear!
I don't want that delight which brims over
my deeply hurt heart and sparks my muse.

Leave my secret soul, Cheetah dear;
my conscience isn't foul to play lustful games
Whichshameless men indulge in for joy.

My pen willfeel cold if I see not your face
but songs more not I seek; you must hold
this mad fool at a pedestal high in your mind.

Fleeting joy bids farewell soon from our hearts
but the wounds we cause remain green
to wreak havoc to our souls till we live.

When I see your smiles I fail to rein
my fancy which takes your hand to kick up flights;
as the waning moon, you recede from my Heart.
