Fragmented, yearning silence finds solace and light in Ashok’s poem, a whispered secret of every love story, exclusively for Different Truths.

The fragments of silence
Often break my patience,
The fragments of impatience,
Silently surround and pounce,
They disappear when you appear.
 
Thoughts, keep on hunting
Untiring and uncompromising
The moments of ecstasy,
Balm me with your hug, cosy;
A melody in the soul reverberates.

“Whenever love knots,” two hearts
It gives unfathomable delights,
It acts like a life-soothing balm,
Implants a lasting joy in life’s realm,
Does every heart experience love like this?
