An evocative poem, by Kamrun, with contestation between a woman and love. An exclusive for Different Truths.

Who are you?
I am love
Are you that one?
Who doesn’t have any destination?
No definition...
There is no hurry to reach the goal
Who belongs only in neuron cell,
Who doesn’t have any existence?
Which is completely based on a hypothesis!
Are you that one?
That impractical love!

Yes, I am that love!
That impractical one!
But do you know?
When someone falls in love
He/she feels like flying in cloud
A gentle breeze is blowing like a musical sound.
A romantic song that is tuned all the time
The fountains are streamed like a flute
The flowers are blooming with chirping birds.
The situation is intoxicated, and anyone can be dissolved.

This time the acquaintance asked the same questions…
Who are you?
The natural beauty with a smirk is telling her… dear
I am that precious one
God gifted deity
Who is so lascivious according to your eyes,
Who is the first priority to fall in love,
Who creates literature, history, even evolution stories?
That woman I am!
Who makes your dreams come true
Making you the craziest one
That woman I am!
For whom anyone can die.
