Enigma

Quietly I step,

Step towards what my heart 

leads me to,

Tiptoing to the banks,

banks of the river of love,

Where passions flow

trying to overflow, 

Crossing over the boulders,

flowing over the sands of time,

Just as I was about to reach, 

Reach the brink 

of the untold story,

The story of our love, 

Wrapped up 

in colourful shiny paper

enclosed in mystery;

New secrets unfolding,

Unfolding each day 

for us to decipher,

For the world to decode,

An enigma,

That doesn't baffle,

Nor perplexes,

But soothes,

Complex 

yet simplified,

Bewildering 

yet enchanting, 

and enlightening!
