Oregano Oranges

A novice poet's magical journey with words

I wish I could change for you: A poem

Hope you enjoy reading this poem.

/

I know that you hoped that the heat of your love would dissolve

The decades old black ice blocking my arteries and veins.

/

I know that you hoped that you would be the first to traverse the same

And reach the inner recesses with a soft flame.

/

I know that you eventually hoped to find

A home in the chambers of my still beating heart.

/

I know. I know. I know.

I just wish I could say this to you too.

-Armaan
