You Are Such A Wild Flower Poem by Arun Maji

you are such a wild flower
with maddening fragrance!
I don't have to touch you,
just seeing you in horizon I get mad.
I don't have to drink you
just smelling you in air I get drunk.

your eyes have gravity of a galaxy
your smile has shine of the Sun
your waist has pull of a black-hole
you lips have fire of a burning star-
tell me, how can a humble human
not fall for your fiery fragrance?

wild, you are such a wild flower!
your juicy petals, your tumescent pistil
your crispy stem, your evergreen leaves-
I feel like- I be a wild wolf,
and jump onto you and pound you.
I feel like-
I touch every bit of your softness
I drink every drop of your sweetness
I destroy every corner of your garden!

I don't care if I die or drown,
I don't care if I gasp or groan-
I just want to feel you, kiss you,
drink you, and destroy you.

wild, you are such a wild flower!
