men are like wine — so says alia.
Friday, May 12th, 2006men are like wines
at least, that’s what alia says
and sometimes
you don’t have to believe
whatever she says.
men ARE like wines
I say
well if you treat them right
and you treat them with your heart
men are
like that
they could be sweet
they could give you warmth
they could intoxicate you
they could
take you to the heaven
of your own design
– and
they’ll mellow with age
so you don’t have to worry
about expiring date
but then again
grapes make the wine
and they’ll be different
from kind to kind
from type to type
from treatment to treatment
there’ll be lot of labours
before you could find the wine
thousands of days, thousands of hours
have to be spent
before you could understand
and the wine understands too
you.
to say that
men mellow with age
is not really correct
to say that
boys are not men yet
is a fact too simplified
you could find
your choicest wine
in everyone you cross path with
you could enjoy
a happily ever after story
in every smile you encounter with
it is in your own heart
the grape of that wine
should grow it’s vines
nurtured
matured
and showered
and treated
with a love
not the best wine that men can make
match
two hearts are needed
to create a love
as intoxicating
as dionysus’ best
and i love you,
alia.
