Love Poem: Expression

Expression

Like the wild birds,
we debate in endless tweeting .
Our words are chaos ,
that drive us to the 
hall of pandemonium.
we had vowed 
to plant the apple tree together
spend endless nights
in each other's arms
cooing whispers of love . 
The tongue is hidden
we stab each other 
in spirit and in flesh
with the serpent's tooth.
I pray let's again 
tread on the path of
the verdure Eden.
Let's  learn to weep 
and express sorrow 
burying heads on each other's shoulders .
Let's sleep and wake up
to the misty morning and 
stand beside the red Apple tree 
laden with luscious fruits of love.
