NaPoWriMo Day 29: Reincarnation of Love

by | Apr 29, 2018 | NaPoWriMo 2018, Poetry | 4 comments

I am off prompt today due to some urgent personal commitment! But here’s what I could manage to write.

Poem: Reincarnation of Love

 

We pursuit love in this whole world

We expect love from everyone we love

But do we ever take a peek inside us

Do we ever think of loving our own true self?

 

 

We transform ourselves for our beloved

We mirror ourself in our beloved

Is love really all about expectations?

Can love not elevate us above anticipations?

 

 

We find ourselves overwhelmed by emotions

We imagine ourselves immersed in love

Is love not supposed to liberate our thoughts?

Is love not meant to pacify our soul?

 

 

Let’s assign a different meaning to love

Let’s develop a new language of love

Where none is bound by reactions and emotions

Where there is just pure love, no expectations!
