Departure

Thoughts flowing through the woven words

Reflected so clearly through the dancing eyes

A life was indeed flowing

Flowing! In between two lives.

In the longitudinal expansion and compression

The silent music was vibrating in the mysterious tune

The bonds inside were loosening

And two lives were centering to a new life.

In the shadow of love, conversely,

Things become brighter and prettier

In the bond of love, conversely

Souls taste the eternal freedom

In the mirror of her eyes

First time I loved myself so deeply

First time I saw “I” vanishing into “We”

First time I felt a drop mingling into Life-Sea

My hands felt a sudden urge to touch her

I felt to say how amazing, adorable she was

But the touch, the words were so petty

Their worldly touch could defile its sanctity

Alas! The night of departure stroked

Ear got deaf and eyes got blurred

It was “Time” who tried to cut the chord

To break the mirror with its mighty sword

I cried oh! Lord

Why did you let me fall in love with her?

If you had to take her away from me

In the reflection of my own sound

I felt her inside my heart

The mirror which I used to hold,

was now dwelling inside my heart.

If Death defines life

Departure derives Love.
