If I had come to Earth with all my powers,
I would have used them to spy on you, Love,
Simply to calm the unrest that waves in my soul!
Yes,
I would have made myself tiny,
Sheltered in a golden hue,
Seeming to be like a dragonfly
And I would have peeped at you
Just to know
With whom you do share a laugh
With whom you do enjoy a drink
With whom you do joke and laugh
And with whom you do share of your day’s happenings!
Pray, being away from you
Turns me into a thirsty love drenched soul,
A stalker, a paining love Goddess, trapped in a human body!
I know,
Since times immemorial
You have enjoyed the childishness that is in me
The capricious behaviour, the moody tides,
The way you easily swing my moods,
Having them soaring high up in the skies at one moment
And having them buried in their own shadows the next!
Why, had you not loved me
You would not have chosen to follow me
By causing your own fall
In a murky and swampy world
Inhabited by beings driven by their own ego
Lost in the blinding lights of illusion,
Trapped in a maze from which they shall never escape!
Why, Love,
Distance pricks
Silence kills
Separation agonises
Far from you, my soul laments,
Wish I had come to Earth with all my powers,
Yes, I would have used them to spy on you
Whenever the unrest in my heart
Would have awakened their rage in me!
‘With all of my powers’ is quite intense in presenting the picture of an agonising soul wishing to have more grasp, more of that power to overcome the excruciating pain…
An absorbing and insightful narrative.Lovely.
