My Weapon Is Love Poem by Akhtar Jawad

My Weapon Is Love

Rating: 5.0


Deaf and dumb and blind is the ancient nature,
Having only two instincts, to create and to destroy,
Very well I know my expectation is my caricature,
I can feel and think as I am a beautiful breathing toy,

I have an experience that my fantasies become a truth,
An experience that my sincere dreams at last come true,
An experience that a helpless infant is at last a youth,
To love and to be loved, whether it's me or it's you,

An experience when silver appears on my tired head,
My continuously beating heart is changedto gold,
I recollect my ecstasies in love before I am dead,
I smile on my naughty and joyful youth when I am old,

I rise once again to kiss my beloved once again,
I believe in you, I trust in you, as I am a fighter,
I shall go on titillating you for another pink stain,
Like an atheist I never and I shall ne'er surrender.

Sweetheart! Even if your existence is merely virtual,
My weapon is love; I shall fight and make you real.

1 – " heart is changed in gold" OR " ...to gold" ? I'm sure your 'heart' is precious to more than one person, maybe MANY! ! ! Very nice: " I recollect my ecstasies in love before I am dead, I smile my naughty and joyful youth when I am old, " [i'd say " smile at" ]

2 – at least you can " recollect" /'remember' the fantasies, even if you can no longer " have them" . does that make sense? i'm too old to know! " pink stain" ? lipstick stain? ? " atheist I never" maybe " never have" the last two lines are my favorites. :) bri :) To MyPoemList

Poets do not love a poet they only their own poems compose on known poets shoulders and point out mainly grammar or typos this is the modern world I suppose

the fantasy, the dreamy now true to life like; the infancy now to true youth; the love, yeah, the love now to your heart, to your mind, to your immortal soul none can slack it; none can defeat you from this coz- love is your true weapon on this earth...///
