Love Grows Poem by Kishore Asthana

There is many a 'you'
In a time-line queue
And when I look back
Love overflows
For each of them

Back then I thought
I could love no more
But then I was shallow
And easily filled

What I took for an ocean,
Was but a sea
And what is now 'we'
Were then, just
'You' and 'me'
What I thought was love
Was a pale shadow
Of what I now know
Love to be

I look back
And connect the yous
Till the time is now
And, in my embrace
Is the sum
Of all my loves
Held closer than close
