meant to be
We all have that someone who has crossed our path and has stuck on our heart. For a few heartbeats, we happen to pause and can’t help but remember that feeling. The following free verse is the translation of that very heartbeat of mine.
it is
meant to be
whether
our lips
meet
or
our bodies
one on one
your legs
wrapped
around my waist
powerful
just as the sun
at noon
scorching,
burning
almost inscribing
every presence
of you
crawling deeper
inside
my skin
crumbling
as it touches
yours
giving birth
to sinkholes
that now
just look like craters
of what
we once were
every time
your body
was against mine
my knees
weak
and
I wonder
if it was meant to be?
maybe
we just passed
like shooting stars
falling
for someone’s dream
maybe
we
are only
you and I
never
meant to be.
