The Temptress I Poem by Sadiqullah Khan
The Temptress I
I find thou in the gatherings of the stars
In the blistered wounds of my heart
Transient are thou in thy passing
Like rose petal thou shall wither
When the dry wind of autumn
Touches thou on the edge
Age is thy enemy
Thine abode is ultimately my heart
In the deep recesses of the depths of my memory
Thou make a tomb like Taj
Thou art the idea that has made me the wonderer
In the desert of love as thou never existed
What thou pretendeth to be
(A sequel to 'As beautiful as me part 2' by poetess Resham Ramesh)

U say u find me in the gathering stars, Evanescent beauty, iam no shooting star But I am as beautiful as the midnight sun. U say u find me in the roses. Fugacious blossoms, iam no flower of an hour I am the quintessential wild vanilla U say age is my foe but he is my confederator Because with age I spicen up like pickle. My dear, you u better not dwell on my verses For it ain't worth your tending and musings They are only a my thoughts taking a stroll. I make no pretenses what so ever for I wear no veil, I am as open as the sky I avow my beauty is nothing In front of the beauty of my mind For it is as truthful as gospel It knows great fortitude and love I can't help it if you find me amusing I aver I am as strong as courage, It aint my fault you cant stop laughing I am as clumsy as an oaf, neotic venus I am one of a kind, only as beautiful as me.
