Je ne sais quoi!

When Adam, for the first time

Laid eyes on Eve,

Creation may have stood still

In comparison to every creature under his command

Dawn had never presented such familiar beauty!

Crafted from the fibre of his marrow

God molded you-

After practicing on everything else.

That is devotion, that is you.

To loosely translate,

Your charm complements your beauty

Present like the essence of the Most High.

Luminous, consuming like the center of a flame.

I’ve walked barefoot on the edge of Earth,

and felt Stardust warmly knead the stiffness out of my feet

I’ve found this familiar comfort in the cushion of your heart

A place I have learnt to call home.

For the past 3 weeks

The moon has stood still across every point of the sky

Magnificently threading between the clouds

On some days, pale… on others yellow

But on the best of days

She took up the shape of your smile!
