A Strong Conviction N Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

No matter what others infer,
No matter what others gossip,
No matter what others confer,
Or for that even if they stall,
I believe in what I do,
I cannot but love you as true,
I shall not be what I am not
And I assure my love is pure.

You can match me with love
Or can stretch me in blue.
I shall enrich you with love.
My love for you is a recluse.
I love you in an enclave,
A secret only to your know-how.
Let me know that you know
It, which is all that matters now.

No matter how others follow
Or it takes me to gallows
I cannot deny what I am,
I can’t be what I am not.
You may accept me or reject.
I am prepared for a fallout.
I know my love is forever,
Which others can not sever.
