I dressed you with flowers, put stars in your eye

Gold painted hair, snow on skin

Rainbow on your lips where raindrops die

Roses on your cheeks, there is no Sin

 

Mountains on your fingers, rivers in your veins

Ocean in your heart, red as wine

This love that stains

A seal that’s mine

 

Clouds on your feet, stairs of crystal

Moon and Sun on your chest, left and right

Lungs full of sparks, lightning bristles

Thunder in your mouth, fire passion bright

 

Crowned your head with beautiful aurora

Diamonds on your ears beautiful glow

Tree in your stomach, fruits and flora

And there a planet inside slowly grows

 

Incense of love perfumed my soul.

This is a compelling & originally-stated message. I had to go back & check the title after reading it, then the connection hit me. This is an imaginary lover. Your descriptions are nicely teetering on the edge of outlandish, but also brushing more conventional understanding, so that the overall portrait is "out there" in a delicious way.

Yes, the chronicle of a spiritual wife. This ghost lover I decicded to love before finding a real love. It's an experimental practice I guess. Once again, I thank you

[APOORVA]

"Incense of love perfumed my soul."

Love does feel like that and we feel drenched in the perfume only too often...

"This love that stains"
I like thinking of love as a stain for regardless of if good or not, there will always be affects of it on our heart. Every love influences us, whether negatively or positively. Great read as usual :)

Thank you very much, it seems your still searching through the pages, but sadly there is only one last chapter, and chapter 20 will not be posted just yet

love for mother earth or love for a woman who gave birth to your heart
