In Paradise
written by: Aminath Neena
Come,
Let me take you
Light years
Away in time
To the night
When our souls met
For the first time
Beside the milky lake
Of Eden
In paradise
Where beauty existed
Without envy
When time elapsed
Within a gust
Of the softest zephyr
When the silky petals
Of roses echoed
The song in our hearts
And when their nectar poured
As raindrops
Whispering a promise
Of a life time
Which, still brings shivers
To this edifice
Of melting femme,
Firing bolts of
Seasonal passion fruits
To haunt its corridors
From time to time,
And remember,
That same night,
I believed
In the existence
Of Love
