If You Like Poem by manaswini dash

If You Like



If you like-
I'll expand myself
from the birth-fire to the cremation fire,
and will be completely burnt,
thus, making all my tender nerves destroyed.
Tell me-
Will be your irrepressible thirst
of sky rising desire pacify then?
If you like-
I'll wipe of my innumerable teardrops
of unbearable pain
before creating an ocean
with my silent sob.
Tell me-
Will your sunken seed of faith
germinate then?
If you like-
I'll make myself wounded
and become a stream of blood.
With my ego drown in that stream
I'll make myself flow around your virility.
Tell me-
Will you use that blood as a solvent
to make a solution
of your boasted ego
to bring a river of Ganges for me
for my salvation then?
If you like-
I'll make my heart still
and lay on your path like an imprecated rock,
eagerly waiting-
for your soft foot touch,
your deep embrace and a divine kiss,
for my stony body to regain its previous self.
Tell me-
With the amalgamation of my emotion and love,
will it be possible for you
to make my dream come true?
