Not That Easy

So my soft delicate body
attracted you like a magnet
and you found it fascinating
for a thing you could just possess
so you thought you would trap me
with a smile and a little wink
and lure my mind with rhetoric
to sweep me off my feet
your excitement went soaring high
when you thought I was docile
and that you would shape and mould me
with your sheer touch and a brief sigh
you wanted to pour me into a bottle
and drink me like sweet wine
and quench your lusty cravings
in my taste which would be divine

But while you felt your plan was perfect
and you were just ready to go
there were things behind the lustre
which you were just too naive to know

A touch and you parched your fingers
and your desires turned into ashes
for the body you thought was cold as moon
was a sun blazing with flames and flashes

I wish you would have known
I was not that easy to get
for you need to touch my soul
before you get to touch my frame.

-Chhaya

    1. Thanks Payal 🙂
      Well, I am on FB, but not as a poet. You would find my poems only on my blog. But I would love to befriend you on fb if that’s what you meant. You can search for me as Chhaya Pachauli. 🙂

    1. Hi Lt ! Thanks so much for the read and the comment. Haha…no, it’s not strange. I like how different readers interpret my poems differently. It’s really interesting to know that you found this one funny, coz when I penned it, I did that with the thought of writing a serious poem…lol ! 😂😂
