I wonder how people love and get knotted,
With the acuteness of immeasurable feelings;
Established in veins of each other’s heart,
And much exalted in the eyes of this world.
...
He gave us the volume of life
Days are well bound like pages
None knows the basic title
But bound up in reading it
...
I had the hatred and agony of this world,
I approached you with a very heavy heart,
With expectation of solace, calm and love,
And sobbing at my sad complaint chart!
...
It’s not a dream at night in bed,
Consciousness in eyes is visible;
Two hearts are there on a fine thread,
Around our love they amble!
...
Someone is calling by my name,
That too in the vast multitude;
I cannot answer out of shame,
Nor strength, nor fortitude.
...
They caused the eclipse of my regal love,
Dashing my spirit and corporal strength,
Mutilating my extremities completely;
I really could have gone to any length.
...
Love in my life was conflagration,
To optimise it I stumbled over the stars.
Everything on my part was in escrow,
I held the sword by the blade of powers.
...
I Wonder
I wonder how people love and get knotted,
With the acuteness of immeasurable feelings;
Established in veins of each other’s heart,
And much exalted in the eyes of this world.
They celebrate love and wealth and relations,
For these are the ingredients of ultimate bliss;
Accumulating knowledge or universal wisdom,
Brain brimmed with calm and meditation.
I wonder how someone is greatly loved,
With all his evils that turn into blessings;
For whom the beloved is ready to die,
Valuing the whole world like a dry twig.
For them it’s easy to leave the entire world,
For a single soul they love all their life;
Embracing those criticisms from all quarters,
And rejecting all laws and facing strife.
I wonder how their commitments are firm,
To live together on the edge of the rapier;
Crushing every impediment under their feet,
And being light as the feather of any dove.
They say, “We are here to kindle our yearning,
And this world is ephemeral and brief;
Find your love till the end of your breath;
Far from the image of Shelly’s grief”.
