Lust – Chapter One

Classrooms were always a blurr
I could not get my mind to focus because I was always bored
I knew someone was speaking but I couldn’t understand a word
All seemed like torture between those four walls
Until she walked in – my heart began to roar

It was lust at first sight
My soul almost flew off like a kite
I kept introducing myself a million times in my mind
As she was walking, seeking for a place to seat
I kept staring that I feel off my seat

Of Course the entire class laughed
With the little dignity I had left, I picked myself and cleaned my glass
I could care less, that my friends were having a blast
I was so nervous – I forgot I was in class
I politely gestured – she seat beside me but she just smiled and passed

As she walked by me it felt like thunder strike
That was when I came back to earth and realise I was still alive
She walked up to me after class to say ‘hi’
She had such a seductive smile that could bring a dead man to life
Out of lust, I did not know when I screamed “OMG I found a wife”

She held a good conversation, even though I could not get myself to focus
I kept staring at her eyes that looks like lotus
Something magical happened, that knocked me off my feet
Mid conversation she winked at me, intending I would notice
I paused for a second and smiled because it felt like I was in heaven

I asked her out for launch after school
She politely turned me down and said
“How about you come to my place – I hope you can cook”
I felt a rush through my veins – all I could utter was “cool”
We hugged and said our byes

Classrooms where always a blurr
I could not get my mind to focus because I was always bored
I knew someone was speaking but I couldn’t understand a word
All seemed a torture until she walked-in between those four walls
And now my heart beats in anticipation because it seems I am about to fall
