I Love You -(To My Cleopatra) Poem by Prabir Gayen

Love You
(To My Cleopatra)

You are loved by Divinity...
Through my love to you,
I will get that radiance from you,
It is not craving forbeing pure
but gratefulness that heart fails to hide.
As time passes yellow leaves
fall on the earth,
Mind is feeling pain inexpressible,
Heart fails to look straight,
Light is becoming dim all around,
Spiritual dreams become painful,
Only love stirs often and on in my being,
Love and only love is with me the moment I opened my eyes,
And it will be on my eyes unto the moment it will be closed forever.
In silent incantation love oozes as pain,
Knowledge recapitulates but love stirs,
Knowledge heals but love wounds,
Who wants to be healed?
Healing gives sense of no- love,
No- love is akin death.
I love you and my soul knows andwhat is there under the sky to share?
Only love is to share.
The line drawn on water makes no ink spot,
Vanishes as nothing,
My love will be like that and still a patch of waves will heave my soul in your name,
The sky meets the sky and sky remains the sky,
My love is the sky and pain is to mature until death.
In death and between lifetime love ultimate may dawn,
Who knows what chronicle we bear under the grave of our hearts?
Let divine fall on us.
