Romantic

Isn't it romantic

how the chrysalids land on the ice cubes

in our drink to wink

with sunlight and time

for the dawning double blind


Isn't it romantic

how wings unborn

are worn to be torn

from our aesthetic interpretation


Isn't it romantic

that we should be so kind as to blind

as to bind each other

belieing bespeak betraying


Isn't it romantic

that we should drink such potion to spite

foreknowledge of death

innate insecurity feigning


Isn't it romantic

how the oils shift smudge to smear coupling

seething suppling searing

precious delicate contours


How I miss your words

tender as tobacco

upon mine morning, mourning throat

how I miss your voice

stillborn butterflies in the ears of compassion

unsettling clouds dim-lit dawning

drawing painting...


But how the butterflies

defy and fly

how the butterflies

in the face of formal

whims and wanton whys cry


Isn't it romantic that

we could be so superficial, civil

in lovingly lavish clasp 'lusive grasp


Isn't it romantic

that we were so resolute

in absolute

pressing persuasion

and parched for passion

that we might seek such vision of void

head-long and strong that we might belong


The chrysalids are daimon diamonds
The chrysalids are daimon diamonds

Isn't it romantic?

Anything Romantic To Say

I sat down to write
a romantic poem
confessing I love you.
However, I guess I’m not
in a romantic mood today,
as I couldn’t find
anything romantic to say.
The words it seems
have left my head,
which only leaves me
one thing to do,
and that is to go to bed.

Unromantic Me

Someone said to me
that their partner wasn’t romantic.
Unfortunately, a lot of men are like that.
It doesn’t mean they don’t love
their partners, quite the contrary,
they love them the best way they can.
However, woman sees romance
quite differently from men.
To me a kiss and cuddle that is romantic,
but a women on the other hand
say receiving candy and flowers is romantic too.
However, ladies look beyond the frilly wrapping paper there.
Just find a man with a good heart
and who will always be true.
He may not be romantic
but at least you know he loves only you.

A Mood Romantic in Nature!

Dreams and imaginations foster romantic mood
Influenced and inspired by beauty of Nature.
Emotion and sentiments occupy romantic life;
Adventure and exploration mark romantic venture;
Rapture and rupture are part of romantic life.
Romance is the essence of love life in the world;
Interest and thrill of romance will never die here;
Otherwise life is monotonous and boring dead weight!

A Romantic Life Adventure!

Sentimental, emotional, great characters love romantic life;
Passionate, engaged and attached they like to live long life;
Fun, entertainment and amusements they have in romance;
Romantic love life these human beings live true to heart ever!

Longing for love they do all to get the hand of sweet heart;
Love, marriages and divorces and love again they try ever!
For the satisfaction of the self they do romance forever here
And live alone ever in life longing for love till the end comes.

Romantic fellows lament about the friends and loves lost in life;
Beginning, middle and end the means followed never the same
Because adventure is the spice and taste of romantic life here;
Many yet live romantic life because the pleasure is exotic ever!

A romantic life is the dream of many a guy and girl since long
Though success is rare failures they are ready to face and die!

Sunday morning dream

It is another morning and I am awake
With your smile when my breath you take
I don’t hear birds in the garden crisping
But in my ear you gently whispering
Wake up darling! It is already dawning
I open my eyes and see you fawning


You come close and sit near me
When I kiss you linger, Blushing are we?
I leave you alone on the bed to make a nice Darjeeling tea
To serve it hot in the cups just like thee
You drink the tea, while looking at me with your lustful eyes
When the romantic thoughts in my mind arise

We than spend a romantic Sunday waiting for new sunrise
But before that, in my dreams you said Good Bye
I suddenly woke up and saw it was a dream of you & me in future life
When I will be your man and you’ll be my beloved wife
But till than let me love you as a friend
While my heart crave for you and some romantic moment that you’ll lend

Dark Nights

Dying Romantic says:
I walk these streets all alone,
the sound of your voice still ringing on my phone.
You just couldn't leave our past behind,
why must I be the one that's always kind?
Your face haunts my nightmares,
and you always leave me something on the stairs.
I burn it with glee,
and yet you send more to pester me.
This heart can't take any more abuse,
so let me cut you loose.
This is goodbye...

Romance Seconds Me, Where Ever I Go

In your old age you too are trailed romantic,
Adolescent, manhood, triangle, -the tricks .
Love in any form is romance,
It is either an intoxication or trance.
When romance says you good bye,
...Love from your life by itself flies..

When I write a poem, -I cry,
I had tried, I failed, I try.
You Beauty, -your hello lips,
Mellow voice, willowing-cave,
Youthful shape, flash in my rib ,

When I paint, -the Eye –romance,
The eternity peeps, and dances,
I say, simply, it is and I a romantic.

Shakespeare for the Dark Lady,
Turned romantic and shady,
Tagore, -swam in Labana’s lake,
He, you, and me, assumed fake,
Live and let live to bake romance’s cake
A little bioscope-romantic sake.

Is my birth for some One’s romance,
Between Time and Nature, -a romantic play,
Am I one of Every man’s humor?
With each change of transient –clay.

Satan’s virtue made Eve, romantic,
Adam’s test of forbidden fruit,
In our life’s flow installed romantic root.

Could I live without my mother,
Whose concern by virtue is romantic,
And with my darling oblivious,
My untold hang, whispers unheard song,
In her charmed magic, to saturate the prong.


My God is romance incarnate,
And the Fate I tackle is so,
Romance seconds me where ever I go

A Poet Should Be

A poet should be romantic as spring
chocolate and cherry
mellifluous honey
drinking day-lit blossoming

Yet a poet should be
suspicious jaded wary
deepest indigo sour wine poison
ice blister winter night scathing

A poet should be loving
beyond bewildering
passionate so jealously

A poet should be spiteful
boisterous unbecoming
belligerent as unseemly

A poet should ever enjoin
engage the reader
emphatic empathic
paving pathos
ever so eternal
most intimate
enduringly

Isnt It Romantic?

Isnt it romantic?
Music in the night, a dream that can be heard.
Isnt it romantic?
Moving shadows write the oldest magic word.
I hear the breezes playing in the trees above
While all the world is saying you were meant for love.
Isnt it romantic
Merely to be young on such a night as this?
Isnt it romantic?
Every note thats sung is like a lovers kiss.
Sweet symbols in the moonlight,
Do you mean that I will fall in love perchance?
Isnt it romance?
(instrumental)
Sweet symbols in the moonlight,
Do you mean that I will fall in love perchance?
Isnt it romantic?
Isnt it romance?

Christian Bale

In terms of the romantic kind of lead, I just never enjoy those movies very much. Maybe they'll come to interest me more as I get older. I doubt it, but maybe. Romantic comedies tend to be, for me, an oxymoron.

Am I romantic or am I not?

Everytime I was pretending
That I was not at all romantic
And I used to act in this way,
When he was near to my heart
What persuaded me to think this way?
Was I bound by an unknown fear?
Was I unaware of his presence?
But he wanted to open the door,
Of my ever doubtful and stressed heart.
I remember him all through my day, Eventhough he is far away from me
For he is ever such a good man to me
Now I know him well and his life
But my mind is cheating me e'erytime
And I can't sleep in my nights
Without remebering his face
Am I in love with him?
Or am I still pretending
That am not at all romantic......
But a question that always
I asking to my sad heart,
Am I romantic or am I not?

Just You

Hello friends...well i would love to give these romantic lines, that i composed recently to all who honor romance..

She is just you_______The light that gets me through

To all its a name_______ But to me its not the same

Just you upon all roses______The chosen one from the races

Looking at you is my pleasure____ Getting your heart is my sweetest treasure

Baby you have the only smile______ That can be noticed from a mile

Everytime you wink i fly______ Thinking that i am touching the sky

So imagine if i touch your hand______ For sure i'll be in a diffrent land

No wonder why you're seductive______ You were born to be attractive

Not only being sensitive______ your voice sounds so romantic

To write more I may need a sea______ Is there a place in your heart for me to be

I hope that you all like it.....Feel free to tell me your opinion.

Another Romantic

The whole world is just
One romantic dramatic comedy
Horror after another
Each person
That hopeless romantic
Triumphant lowlife, scoundrel,
Angel, model
That we see every day
Every kiss is love
Every loss the worst
Things start to loose their meanings
In this same old romance
Comediatric dramatic horror series
With way to many seasons
Once a hit
Now watched
Out of pity
Waiting for another character
To get killed off
So they can return
To their own romantic
Comedy drama horror life cliché
Hoping one day
The movies won’t be able to say enough
To call it a romantic
Comedy horror drama
Of a life
