Once I placed a bet with myself
to climb up on a ledge placed so high,
to explore the vast spread that lies
in the blueish lagoon of your eyes.
I felt the rare opposite extremes
and saw a scintillation of my dreams.
An unlucky tragedy of the heart,
tears flowing along in full streams.
I lost my heart in a bid for the prize,
lost in feelings of awe and surprise.
I saw him in the bottom of your eyes,
there, my affectionate heart still lies.
You may ask how was I so naïve?
dived in silently despite being so brave,
and you closed them over with a smile
letting me remain in for a while.
As lotus leaves hide a bumblebee inside
after the sun sets on the westside.
All I found there were, experiences rare
Nature’s art reflecting in the perfect pair.
