I discovered you too young...

I discovered you too young...

When I was young and scared
And uncertain what to do with you
When the calluses in my hands were
too tender to handle your heat

For yes, even at that tender age
When the stars in my eyes still twinkled
I saw your warning label, tucked in an
obscure corner 'Highly Inflammable'

So even though you were 'Smoking Hot'
I ran, faster than I ever have
But midway, I stopped and waited
long enough for you to catch me...

And that was my sweet mistake
one that almost took my life... (To be continued :P)

When an everyday convo becomes ?poetry?

So I was off twitter for a couple of months and this is how I was welcomed back by my dearest friend Ekow ... (unedited) I like intelligent goofiness :) :) 


The famed Grand Star has returned!
Returned from her quest
Oh brightest Etoile!
How dreary my night sky has been without ye.
Come! Come shine thine light in me.

In thee, thou sayest, brave knight?
Say verily, canst thou stand the heat?
My fiery light is not just bright
it is but also some ferocious  heat

Then burn I will if I must.
For this world is cold and dark
Far cold for the sun's  warmth
Far dark for the sun's piercing rays
So blind me with thine light
Incinerate me with thine warmth.
I will not settle for no other existence!

If so thou desireth most
Then come forth
My dearest Knight
I shall heed thy request
Ash and cinder thou shalt soon be
But thou shall burn in joy and utter glee

Aye!
Pleasure sweeter than Anything known in this world
Engulf me and leave not a trace of me in this world
Not an atom's trace
