YOU CAME

You came on a stilly night
And  woke me from disturbed slumber
To a disturbing ecstasy.

You offered
Me the forbidden cup,
I drank-

And the world passed me by
In a flurry of colours,
I drank----

And I drowned in the sweetness
That played truant with my senses,
As all else paled into delightful insignificance.

You and I existed,
And the world did not.

I challenged Fate with love-burnt lips,
And Fate did in fact laugh----

You went away with the forbidden cup,
Before I'd had enough.
