With a sensuous smile

like that

you cannot

by any means

hope to gracefully rule

my world

But you can indeed

manage to deliver it

on the verge of

A pounding

palpable

and anarchic furore

[peaceandpono-blog]

wind kissed my skin as I stepped out into the world

lifted me above life

carried me carelessly through the day

reminding me with rosy cheeks

that I was indeed alive

[leftiswhatgodmademe]

With a smile like that, you could rule the world... pink diamond lips parted just right and Cheshire teeth sensually grinding.

Even with my distance covered, the tiger has finally caught up with me. Even in my obscurity, I am no longer safe - no longer free. Even under the hands of care I've been on the run since my mind could think. Even in peace and proseprity, the scales of life flood to one side in a blink. Numbing and forgetting, do I continue on with my flight? Or in opposition, do I finally stand my ground at last to fight?

Trying out the challenge from PoetryPortal!

I had to use the prompt 'With a Smile Like That, You Could Rule the World' as well as 'Bitcoin'

With this picture that I had seen before in mind, the prompt and a song stuck in mind, I wrote this random piece.

Break-up Advice

We wonder sometimes why were victims of love crimes. Caught carelessly right in the middle of a pickle. Burned by some guy who'd sworn never to say bye. I asked her how she could still be. She seemed free. Even when we saw nothing to believe in. She told me, "be bold. This is one moment and you've got a lifetime left to be broken. I imagine my passion touching your heart before you fall apart; otherwise our conversations are no more than fake affirmations." Suddenly something so big shrunk down to a twig. My mind now light, I stepped outside, the wind kissed my skin giving me a pleasing fright, I suppose she was right.

Bit of a mess but the words just spilled onto paper so I went with it 😂

[praggya1993]

My flaming ferocious passion always turns ashen

Whenever the soft wind of your softly smiling skin

Drifts lightly past the ancient acres of love within me

And fully forces me to confirm my flickering belief

In the futility of feigning an ardent affectionate relief

As I'm pricked awake from a momentary monumental dream everyday

And bitterly bite back words that'll swiftly rot and wrack in my brain

My love will never gallantly gain the strength to ever

Be called more than an aching unrequited, unreasonable longing

Stifling yet undeniably unable to kill my hopeless yearning and desire

[praggya1993]

Your undeniably unusual antics

And your persistent tireless tactics

Born of an incredibly ingenuos heart

That tries it's best but always falls short

To melt the hardened heartless facades

Of those who've long forgotten and forsaken

Quite a significant fact over the time

That if they try to wipe and rub

the leaden blanket of thick dry dust from their vision

The fluttering freshness of every new dawn

Will gladly be able to make them change

Their beaten bruised view of reality

In the near future for sure

Will never get obsolete and time worn ever

And would keep alive the child in me

Forevermore

Even within a room, any room, that I am in, the wind kissed my skin. Finds its way, sweet fumes from your perfume it sways, as if a goddess passed, I'd assume you would be. You, stop time with your trance, leave me breathless, at a smile and at a glance, too. As the mind is torn apart, my passion touching your heart, starts, to run its art. Pickled hearts transform once again to tickled fresh, by the sound of your voice's verses, the gazing of the eyes' tenses, touching, as hands mesh, sweet as tart ( personal: this soul is fickle, it loathes any a pickle). This is sinful stint, painful, sorrowful, a pagan win. And yet primordial stardust searchings, emotion is, as is feelings. You and me, on a feeling spree, trying to know, trying to find out and for ourselves sow, what truly love is.

[praggya1993]

She loved the deep, salty, stormy seas

Whose soft, surging and buoyant waves

Majestically flowing freely over

Even the most rigid, rugged

And bumpy boulders of time

Always gave her ample, abundant and valid reasons

To beautifully carve, chisel and hone her mind

According to it's steady, stoic and enduring perfection

Like the work of a settled, seasoned artist

That would blithely blow your mind

/

He loved the unbounded,undefined yet harmonious sky

Never ever fluctuated,faltered or wavered to find

A clear compelling reason to sight

Steely hues of sere somber clouds

As smiling wisps of precious promises and hopes

That never looked flattering to fragile, flaky eyes

/

When a warm wind of love

Calmly caressed the skin of their souls

They united unanimously in an ionic bond

That veritably and readily refused

to lose it's insanely long lasting strength

Against the tragic throes

of a melancholic man made fate

For eternally ever

Like the splendidly shining stars above

And the sparkling sunlit swells below

[praggya1993]

I want to drink

Till the ascerbic venom

Within it

Brutally scorches

Every pound

of this wretched desire

Within me

And buries me

Deep beneath the blanket

Of a decadent sleep

From where i wake

Like a new born child

Bereft of a past

With a bounty of

An unsullied life

Breathing and unfolding

Within and around me

That prohibits me sternly

From trying to hide myself

Most of the time

From blissful seasons of joy

Rendering this transient existence

Cheerless with bleak skies

I want to rush,race and sprint

Like the stoic,enduring waves

Of time

With an unruffled vigor

That never expires

According to a flickering will

Before it's time

[praggya1993]

A smile that evokes

a sensuous sigh

Even with swollen

Parched lips

That ache to devour

A single tear of joy

And eyes that yearn

To flicker like

swathes of a scintillating

sunlit ocean

Somehow

Is a smile whose worth

Eagerly surpasses

Indefinite amount of

Any currency in this world

Be it bitcoin , lira

Or a franc

I'm sure

[uninhibitedmatters]

With a smile like that, you could rule the world....

White smirk, sharp canines, and a slight overlap of teeth on the right side like seconds before the snapshot they fought for the spot light. There's no denying the beam in your eyes. A sort of fire starter that left me tongue tied. We fit sensually.......or so I thought. I got caught in the knots of your bitcoin smile. Digital encryption, intangible currency. Leaving me drowning in my own uncertainty. We were supposed to fight through all the adversity.

[jmsapphire]

What I never notice in faces, I see in souls, you

With a smile like that you could rule the world,

An ordinary beauty, but one bursting forth inside

Behind such cherries' lips, sea green daring eyes -

I dive heart first each time you smirk, and secretly

I aim for your heart, your eyes, that you so see

I am enamoured, innocently, sensually, by you

I'm but lowly blogger, Bitcoin miner on the side

nothing about me is good to see that I hide -

Yet here I am, openly show you that this is me

I hope I get to know (and taste) you, to smile too.
