Part of the 2016 LOVE Poetry Festival.
A fuzzy feeling had tiptoed in
To silently grasp me in its grip
I found myself waiting to catch a glimpse
Cherishing hours of endless larks and talks
Holding hands in the alley on walks,
Relishing the whiff of a life giving zephyr,
Love!!
Your intense gaze fixed on my face,
I lost myself in your entrancing embrace,
With an impulsive zeal our lips had met
In a gush of yearning, I was swept
Like a paper boat in the sea, I kept
Swirling on a colossal tide of desire,
Love!!
Riddles arose, riddles were solved,
Two souls merged, egos dissolved,
Playing the sweetest harmony of its kind,
In a communion of body and mind.
I discovered myself vibrant, alive,
Drinking the magical elixir,
Love!!
Love, the panacea for odds of life
Yet, was the reason for many a strife
Was it possession, an obsessive addiction?
A dependency swiveling around gratification;
From unconditional, it turned provisional
The cause of trepidation,
Love!!
Followed the inevitable separation, and its agony
Haunting like an unfinished symphony
In the depths of despair, it dawned on me-
Whether we meet again or not
A part of you will always be with me,
Despite the seal of destiny –
A mystical, paradox,
Love!!
