my baby's voice is sweet.
she speaks with such
thoughtful generosity that it
leaves me collecting her smiles
as if i'm spellbound and in haste.
her expressive face and
moonlit lips that remind me
of mid 50's bollywood trend,
her protruding eyes and
their honey-glazed gaze,
you don't see the halo
but she's strengthed my faith.

it's like her hair are
tangled with my lungs cause
it gets hard to breathe when
she leaves them undone,
you've never seen her
long nervous fingers
running through those
curly locks of nightfall
that frames the face of my sun.

yes, she has mastered the art
of stealing people's hearts,
but long ago i think she stole
some fairy's pixie dust too,
it rests on her apple cheeks
every time she adorns that grin
and showcases those ivory hooks
that has my heart hanging
like a leaf under an autumnal hue.

she's my first secure relationship. and so i let her chew my heart.
i don't mind a bit.
you can't blame me.
had you met her,
i'm sure you'd be too
willing and desperate
to offer yours as well.

and it's so pretty;
the way she calls my name.
she grins so wide every time
i dramatize about getting
into a cardiac arrest.
i'm familiar with artistry
in all its forms and shapes
but she's got that smile
that is enough to
put the Mona Lisa's to shame.
