      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Haiku & Other Half-truths... - Anna Khachatryan

      I.

      Love…

      Love – a rare flower,

      Will you ever take root

      in my garden of life?

      Touch me

      Kiss me

      Feel me

      Feel the moment

      Live for the moment

      And let me be the child I am

      Is this me burning with fever

      Is this my mind running amok

      Is this my body tensing

      Is this my heart racing

      Is that you I hear

      Is that your glance overpowering me

      Is that your hand sliding swiftly over me

      Is that your warmth I feel

      Is this me melting

      Are those tears yours or mine

      Is this love I’m feeling

      Or is this insanity?

      Holding you

      Brings peace upon me

      Holding you

      Melts my insides

      Love and Joy

      Run side by side

      Loving you

      is tears and laughter

      Loving you

      is a wonder

      Loving you

      is crazy

      Loving you

      is easy

      In the darkness of your room

      In the cradle of your arms

      In the heat of the moment

      I lose control…

      Your Touch

      I’ll tell you why I am afraid of your touch

      It is so tender.

      Your touch is luring

      Its power could make Virgin Mary hunger for more.

      Your touch is the shiver running through my body

      The line between fascination and fear

      Challenged.

      I’ll tell you why I am afraid of
