Spread the love

Reading Time: < 1 minute

An evocative love poem, full of longing, by Rajashree, exclusively for Different Truths.

Indeed,
I am a lamp misread in a waxed night
As the tenebrosity deliquesces
I turn to be 
Infructuous and useless.

Yet, I feel
Your chilled and impregnable perceptions
Look for my benign presence ever
In each of its disclaimer
And abnegations.

But why?
Why? and What for?
When you take me to be impalpable
and insubstantial insignificant,
yet trivial and meager?
 
Wish you realise
That Godhead experienced through extoling hymns
Is not the same as that in a total abdication
and ductile submission.
So also, that a lover’s portrait in a framed art in frigidity
Is never as like a live-in lover as in reality.

Oh, my dear!
I am often confused
If you know the gentle law of living
That the world is a spheroid
And every end meets here a new beginning.
In as much as
Every fire tends to turn to smudges for a next regeneration
And deep dark night fades away
leaving pace to a new dawn.

May whatsoever be in mind
May whatsoever be the confusion
Wish I go with a deep sleep
In your extended arms
Where in lieu of love, I would opt to forget my depression

Oh, my love!
May the world sleep with me in consolation.
