The Charm Of Old Mumbai : Pune Highway

The Charm Of Old Mumbai : Pune Highway 

There is so much left to explore.

there are so many maps that you

have not even opened.

so many

roads that you do not

know the names of. do not

know the taste of their asphalt.

so many late night gas stations

open roads truck stops static-y radios.

there are so many miles on my body

your mouth has yet to kiss.

there are so many mountains i know

that your shaky knees shall conquer,

so much music i am waiting to hear

from your lips.

what do you think

of overthrowing the oceans,

what do you think of jawline kisses

and driving past graveyards ghost towns

and where your grandparents used to live.

there is so much left to see.

you have so many lovers that

you have yet to meet their skin.

hold on a little longer, my darling,

we can take our time. we could take

all the time in the world.

we could have had it.
