RELATIONSHIP Poem: EMBRACE, by Afiq Muhammad

The night grows ever darker,
The night sky filled with grey clouds,
Covering the moon in its entirety,
Leaving the world with little trace of light.

The world grows ever so silent,
The stillness in the air can be touched,
The world has gone quiet now,
The world was sleeping.

Yet here we are,
Embracing each other warmth,
Your body intertwines with mine,
Your hands wander around my body,
Going along its curves and shapes.

We kissed,
I pushed my lips onto yours,
And so do you,
I can taste the sweetness of them,
How firm and soft it is,
Making me fell even deeper,
In this love of yours.

We made love throughout the night,
Time seems to move slower,
As if the night was meant for us.

Our eyes locked to each other,
Time is meaningless now,
In this unfading world,
Only we exist,
Me and you,
In our vulnerable state.

We woke up in the morning,
Next to each other,
The sky was painted in orange hues,
The birds were chirping and singing,
In a beguiling euphony.

The world finally has woken up,
Hundreds of people swarming like flies,
Hurrying to their destination.

You hugged my arms tightly,
I can feel the warmth of yours,
You looked at me directly in the eyes,
Our eyes locked again,
Oh God,
Your coquettish smile,
Your teasing eyes,
Your come-hither looks,
Even the way you called me.

How can I not love you?
You are so perfect,
Perfect in my eyes,
The world does not need to know,
I do not like sharing.
