The Paradox Of Love Poem by Varghese J Kuttikat

Love passionate imposes a burdensome burden
Not easy to shake off, still lifts you up towards Heaven
Heavenly Father took upon Himself, in Creation,
A Herculean burden in overwhelming passion
Close-knit hearts exult in union
Hallowed be it, lit with love and compassion
All ties solemn compel a sort of surrender,
A surrender, if need be, even to the extent of extinction
The beauty of love resides in its Ego-projection
With its simultaneous, saintly, paradoxical Ego- rejection
