Why this feeling of intrusion

Why these fly so fast  and perch,
Involuntarily, my  words, anywhere?
Why cause me the feeling of intrusion
Though no one has my presence to care?

Why your words hallucinate me
And take me to a nether land?
Where, what you spake permeates
And draws my words like a magician’s wand.

I keep losing self and words
Giving into the artistry of your ‘speech’
You lead me ever to ‘spell my mind’
Subconsciously, everything’s in your reach.

I wake up from the stupor and
Try retreating self and words
Only to see you smile on them
With unheard hum of a thousand birds.
