I Love You Not Because I Love You Poem by Prabir Gayen

I love you not because I love you

I love you not because you are beautifully,
I love you not because you love me,
I love you not because you think of me,
I love you not because you do Sacrifice for me,
I love you not because you look for me,
I love you not because you are extraordinary,
I love you not because you are very special to me,
I love you because I can't help loving you,
Love is there with no condition.
Sometimes love is tired and becomes hatred,
I hate you because I can't help hating you,
I love you and hate you and hating love you,
I love you and hatred is at the core,
I hate you and love is at the center,
Loving and hating make you enigmatic,
I can't help avoiding you because
Love is subtle and it exists with no reason,
Love and hate make you someone special,
In light and in darkness you are with me,
In platonic Joy and sensual pain
You are as my inward self,
Loving you is like falling in self-love,
Through pain and pleasure love becomes
mature and adamant,
Without hatred love is futile,
Hatred makes love fruitful,
I love you through painful abhorrence
and love becomes joyful
With its opposite sense.
Love and lust are like the sun rise
and the sunset,
The dark night and broad daylight,
Beyond the sense of love and worship,
Beyond the song of desire and dullness,
Beyond smallness and sense of loss and profit,
Beyond pain and pleasure, divine and wayward,
Love is a spirit unto itself,
You stand there as an invisible pain
in the border of my mind,
In deep mood of joyousness or
in deep pain of forfeiting the realm of mind,
You are like a dark spirit holding my hands,
I love you going beyond mind and
no sense of love is there as guiding spirit,
Unconditional is the prime tune of my love,
I will demise unto your soul without
By dissolving into the existence.
