What A Painful Pleasure Love Is! Poem by Ramesh T A

Is love a private or public matter being the all powerful one
Of all human relations in the world that cherishes it most ever?
Love is an intimate relationship of soulmates exchanging hearts'
Messages in whispers and silence engrossed in gaze of eyes long!

Immaterial and unmindful of who all see them or where they are,
Lovers exchange flying kisses or intimate close ones at will..!
That is real, open and Western culture that permits love so
And is supported by all who cherish love in all ways possible!

But in Eastern culture, love is cherished as divine and private
Never needs to be popularized and is fostered in lovers' hearts;
Being so delicate and intimate that love faces many hurdles
And the bold and courageous ones only succeed at last in life!

What a painful pleasure human love is being an intimate relation!
Let not all disturb and spoil the intimate love quite rare ever!
