Because You Have Smiled To Me Poem by Arun Maji

Tonight, gray is green
Pain is pleasing.
Tonight, dead is awakening
Hell is hiding.
Tonight, heart is dancing
Soul is singing
Why? Because
You have smiled to me.

You have smiled to me
O my love,
You have smiled to me.

Tonight, I could write
greatest verse ever.
Tonight, I could climb
Steepest mountain ever.
Tonight, I could defeat
Fiercest fighter ever.
Tonight, I could persevere
Toughest journey ever.
Why? Because
You have smiled to me.

You have smiled to me
O my angel,
You have smiled to me.

O my love,
I have seen your smile tonight.
The smile, that breaks through cloud
And shines like Sun.
The smile, that awakens dead
And comforts like balm.

Because, in your smile
I have seen most divine light.
I am now Immortal,
Indomitable, invincible, Infinite.
