The Temptress Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

But you melt like wax when the heat of my fingers touches you
When the kiss on your red lips shall unleash the sighs to be discovered
Lover though I am unfortunate for the temptress as you are
Nothing are you when my gaze shall not
In abstraction define the sensuous curves
Like wine I drink from your beauty
I shall not but escape the traps thou set for me
(A sequel to 'As beautiful as me' by poetess Reshma Ramesh)
