Hijack My Heart
4th April

written by Sulthana

The tangerine of her dress
Dazzles and razzles
The sunlight on her heels
Blinks and winks
The rouge of her scarf
Sways and plays
And her sun-kissed face
Hints at a faraway place
Where her heart beats
And her soul beats
And her smile beats

Her golden eyes reflect
streams of dreams
And her wrists chime with
tangles of bangles
Her hair, flowing ink pinned,
Paints rhythms of the wind
Amidst the tangerine of her dress
To the tambourines of her steps
and her heart beats
and her soul beats
and her smile beats

Her Colgate mouth
Smiles by the miles
Her tangerine dress
Shimmers and glimmers
as the Summer sun
Dances and prances
To the tune of the birds
Singing secret words
to her heart beats
and her soul beats
and her smile beats

Her glance of elegance
Entices and spices
The whispers of the zephyr
Exposes her flow, oh so,
In her tangerine dress
and her cherry scarf mess
No one in this world, just her
In a moment made for just her
And her heart beats
And her soul beats
And her smile beats
