I Am A Bachelor! Poem by sundaram chandrakalaadhar

Darling dear!
I am a bachelor-

My eyes
know not the tear buds!

My mind
is a stranger to traumas!

My lips,
you know, scatter only
the laughing stars!

My legs
in intoxication of overflowing joy
dance on unsteady feet!

Therefore, my love,
rush to me
and into me!

Show inside me
the lakes of tears!

Scratch me all over
with the thorns of sorrow!

Take me to the expanses of affection
and greeneries of togetherness
that within me await your discovery!

Let me shower you in joy
in return for the tears you bestow
to taste the juice of life all my life!
