My Love's Silent Song Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

You might feel love has no hearth in my heart
Because I never once caressed your curls,
Nor have I sported with Cupid's love dart,
Pranks nor yet jinks, our ship has sailed in lulls.
But let me in the name of love confess:
Shallow love tends to have a sweeter tongue,
As lesser pens pen too pompous a song,
The more I love the less I need to stress.
Deep waters of depths the serene most are,
Shallower the streams greater goes the roar,
True love stays steady like a polar star,
So stands my love— harboured in heart's deep core.
My river of love flows ceaseless for long,
One day I'm sure ye shall cherish my song.
