Rating: 5.0


You are the second one
Whom I love by my heart
Without seeing your face,
The God being the first one.

I love God for his deeds
With which the world is run.
I love you for the words
With which you pour passion.

I need not see the God,
Who is not corporal.
After so much in flow
I must know you by face.

The love built up by souls
Cannot be put to naught
By their corporal looks.
Rather they will enhance.

God can communicate
To us without His face.
You can’t communicate
Better without image.

very lovely composition. it must be for some one special. its the image of a personality that forces us to like some one without seeing them. we have never seen God Almighty but see how much we love him..... take care

Face is the index of mind...it shows the emotions unfathomable by words...and then a glint of formless god sneaks in the faces of honest and good humans.....very sensible composition....and i got the message.
