Salil Jha Poems

Go kiss her from her forehead to her feet
Let this poor heart
in you
become courageous
...

With all odds
against us
Our heart in love
is always young
...

I will be
the first warmth of sun
Kissing you tenderly
hugging you tightly
...

Do all you can to console me.
Make your words rich
As butter and chocolate.
Intoxicate me with your
...

True love
begins with the eye,
grows in the heart,
and blooms in our
...

In you I find my childhood friend
Leaving you is thirsting without water
Kissing the locks of your hair
I am bewildered
...

As lovers in my dreams we meet
With every breath I feel you
My heart yearns to see you again
No other treasure I seek
...

I secretly loved you for so long
My love
You gave me new life
...

Lover of my dream,
come meet me
in the garden
where each heart
...

They search for atonement and find it not.
They dig into the esoteric texts
memorize them
but do not see the garden.
...
