Once upon a Time.. Part~5. An English poem by Saroop Chattopadhyay (Fifth one of Once upon a Time series)


*Once upon a Time.. 5*

Once upon a time
Without a reason or a rhyme..
A sweet queen gave some sign of love
Suddenly again I've fallen..

I look into her eyes
My heart starts to race
My breathing rapidly increases
My body’s in a state
Yet …
I’m in heaven!

What is happening to me?
It feels as if I'm losing my mind
Do I take this chance of love?
Or do I run and hide?

You’re in my thoughts day and night
I’m fighting these feelings with every ounce inside
Knowing very well that I have plenty to hide

But she saw right through
No wall too thick or too tall
I feel vulnerable
I feel bare

How I long for your touch
For the taste of your luscious lips
For the safe heaven I will get
By hugging you in my chest 
And you wrap your arms around me

I am falling for you
Falling hard and fast
It feels as though I’m looking at this
From one dizzy height
A mixture of excitement & fear
Whenever you are near

Today I’m taking a stand
I will be brave and give love a chance
Despite the fear & uncertainty
I want to be a part of you
I want to be a part of your life


I don't know whether it will sustain..
I don't know if society will accept it or not?
I even don't know how long you'll love me..
But really I have fallen in love once again

But still I am.. take my hand
For I am fragile & scared
I’m putting all my trust in you
I have fallen for you even in this fag end of my life.
