Bliss

Posted on by Shaily Agrawal

The food is never so enticing

as when you are denied.

Water never has such a hold

until your lips are dried.

But you wait for the signal

and a not a moment before

do you let it touch your lips

as you surround it

and yet ignore it,

praying,

waiting until you are free

to devour it.

Ah! Bliss!

    1. Thanks Pete! I was just thinking of the moment when we sit waiting for the signal to break our fast during Ramzan. It is the most difficult time of our day when food is waiting for us and we are waiting for the precise moment when we are allowed to eat
