My First (?) One...

Well... You make me go back to my writing days. This is not exactly the first one I wrote--that was when I was in 10th standard. But this one definitely is the first since I decided to write.

Once upon a time
Times were nice
Me, she, and our smiles
Those days perished
The moments we cherished
They still play in front of my eyes
She hated girls, I hated boys
Being together made us complete
We loved us raw, never elite
I was so general, she was so plain
Verdicts were given, we took no pain
I loved her, she but possessed
Glances grew mine, hers they intensed
1.
In the dark as if ember I burnt
On the burning mat till the light I turned
With eyes closed I lay on that pyre
Waiting for her to put out the fire
Why is she so late?
I’ve heard, He makes them wait
A warm breeze on the temple blew
My muse was there, at last, I knew
Job’s patience it needed to lay still
A Herculean task tugging my will
This strength too to her I owe
Her presence was Eden, Heaven was to follow
Slowly flew the tempest, reaching the verge
The pair tottered, eager to merge
In a breath time stood, went by ages
Unframed remains the saga of my rages
Gradually she lowered, I was consecrated
Above the seven skies, elevated
She stood in halo, I lay in trance
The world uneclipsed to her divine countenance
Damned are those who call it a kiss
In mortality it remains Almighty’s eternal bliss
