ODE TO LOVE

Amor vincit omnia…

Rain drenched summers

Dust roofed winters,

Wrap up…

Sweet moments of happiness

Turn into fond memories…

Days, months, seasons of estrangement

Intrude in between two souls

Obsessed to congregate…

Like every congregation

Her blue eyes glitter

With joys of ages

Her thin little lips shake

With the pressure of passion

Her slim smooth fingers creep

To lovingly caress those of mine…

Her long black hairs

Get intoxicated with me…

Warped with the evening waft

They embrace my cheeks…

Years of agony

Surpassed by moments of happiness…

That is why

It is said –

Love conquers all…!
