Love, to have come across your path
In this shadowy world,
Is naught but a boon from the skies!
You are my wings,
With your power, I shall be able to fly us up
To where clouds can’t be formed
To open the doors of there where we are meant to be!
You are my breath
You allow me to keep on living
In a world ruled by Death
A world, whose inhabitants blindly consider themselves
As having to be grateful for having been given life
Even if such remains laden with the pricks of an unknown power
Called Fate!
You are the beats of my heart
You allow me to love not only you
But myself and the life that has been imposed upon me
When I chose to fall down here, for the sake of our union!
Love, if I recount to you the meaning and the purpose
Of those eternal tunes emanating from the night sky
Tunes hoping, yearning, to have us awakened to them
As to realise that we are meant to remain
Tangled in each other’s arms, held safe by the will of the skies,
Will you believe in my words?
Love, though you are human in form,
You are much more than this,
You remain, for me, the other half of my soul,
That which I require to be complete
The warmth and the passion that I need
To realise that life can be as pleasant
As is a free flowing love poem when spoken it is
On a clear summer night, surrounded by gurgling river water
And an orchestra of nocturnal elements!
Love, I am drenched in anticipation,
I have yearned for you since more than a decade
It was hard, I broke down several times
Only to surge up again as a rising sea typhoon
Set into motion by the celestial powers!
Love, when the Gods desire to see us being each other’s drive
Pray, break down the walls surrounding your heart
Break them down and build a bridge for me
I shall cross it and settle there
Ruling it with tenderness so powerful
As to have you desire more and more
Of me!
A cheerful and effervescent piece woven with the author’s inimitable poetic acumen.
