You Are Mine Poem by Arun Maji

O beautiful,
How far, how long
would you hide from me?

Wouldn't you ever come down
From sky of lies and excuses
To the ground of reality?
If you don't do by yourself,
Destiny would bring you down.

And the destiny is
You are mine. Purely mine. Inevitably mine.
In your smile
Is engraved my name.
In your eyes
Is shining my dream.

None would ever love you more
Than I do.
None knows how to care you more
Than I do.
Do you hear me o beautiful
Do you hear me?

How long would you hide
In mantle of mirage?
Ask your heart
Whose song it sings?
Ask your soul
Whose tender touch it longs?

You see my fleshy heart
But not the song within it.
You hear my whisper
But not the cry within it.

O beautiful,
I am all ready
To offer myself to you.
Take me.
Take me and do with me
As you please.

Maybe you can evade me this life
But next life?
Can you really hide from my love?

You are mine
And you would stay mine.
