A Unique Solution Poem by Namita Rani Panda

"My pristine true love I do offer you dear,
As an ardent lover I completely surrender."

"Trace back dear, change your mind,
At this stage love can never be blind."

"Love is ever blind to the walls of this world,
Beyond time and space, flesh and blood."

"Will you love my grey rough hair,
That, with the light kiss of aging, is getting thinner? "

"Your hair is like the drifting amorphous clouds in the sky,
With which as a crispy soothing breeze I'd love to smell and play."

"And the wrinkled skin that's no more fair,
With the touches of age, it has lost its glare? "

"The wrinkles are your sacrifices down the ages,
That for your soothing solace I'd love to caress."

"My hollowed eyes are devoid of dreams and hopes,
Unattractive are my sunken cheeks and parched lips."

"Your eyes are deep oceans where I prefer to dive again and again,
I can feel the untold stories hidden in your lovely lips and cheeks
though dry and sunken."

"Stained are my nails, rough and gnarled my fingers
Repulsive and disfigured are they doing daily chores."

"The fingers that rocked the cradle and rear a family can only be
loving, never be ugly
That I'd love to sooth with my soft lips only."

"You have never marked my bulging womb
Defaced with stretch marks as a dilapidated tomb."

"Your womb is the earth that bears unbearable pain,
The stretch marks are lovely signatures of your selfless creations."

"Have you ever marked my flaccid breasts?
Can they ever satisfy your unrequited thirst? "

"What matters me more is the heart hidden behind,
You've mistaken, thirsty is my soul, not body or mind."

"The heart you seek dear is no more mine,
So, you give a second thought and change your mind."

"I am a slave to my helpless heart,
Walking on a one-way path, no chance to depart."

"Then you're left with one option only: Like the sun just watch
from a distance,
When around my axis and orbit I circle and dance."
