Talia
I hold her tightly
Her skin against mine
Soothing her pain
For I am to blame
for the scars inscribed
on those innocent thighs
And my words are the bullets
that tore right through her
It was my name
etched into the tears
I forbid she shed
And I who introduced
that strong body, to Abuse
But still I wrap her
in apologetic arms
Seeing the beauty and worth
she has always had

We join forces
stilling the battle of two
I am whole,
on my own
in my own
forgiving, loving embrace
Psychological splitting is a common defense mechanism whereby your thoughts aren’t able to form a cohesive realistic conclusion, rather a very black-and-white thinking of extremes. I have certainly done this and the poem explores my bullying and extremely negative alter ego dominating my innocent self. Since engaging in spiritual and mindful practises my capacity to forgive and love has allowed me to uncover and accept my true ‘self'.
days go by fast,
nights never last.
lonely comes,
lonely goes.
we think we know
but no one knows.
we get caught up in the spur of moments,
we know the only thing we have is a moment.
-
no future promised,
lets be honest,
lets appreciate whats here.
before we lose it all,
lets make the most of what we share.
lets love and care.
so reckless,
and without resisting
in honor of a love within our very existing.
-
less thought,
whats meant to be seen will show.
less worry,
when you see it you'll know.
lets grow,
lets go beyond the point of modern day love.
lets lose ourselves,
a great escape beyond the modern day, love.
-
cliff dive,
head first from the highest of heights.
create the highest of highs.
amongst the heavenly skies that cheer us on.



When the illusive Angel of LOVE strikes
On the birds soaring wings in flight
LOVE rests for a while in their nest
To pen birth of LOVING babies in hearts
To brood LOVERz-BELOVEDz LOVE passions
Into a phenomenal devotional longing...

That's what this craving is all about
To annihilate ourselves in LOVEz
This is our chance to show the world
The true way to LOVEz each other as
BELOVEDz-LOVERz &  LOVERz-BELOVEDz

The world asked us: "Who are YOU?"
We said: "Shadows of each other"

The world asked us: "What do you want?"
We said: "Each other's LOVEz"

The world said to us: "That's impossible"
We said: "..If that is so.. so be it...!"

If this is the pathetic affairs
On which the world functions
Let the world know this:

-Our LOVE is not a "game"
-Our LOVE is not a "business"
-Our LOVE is not a "competition"
-Our LOVE is not a "gamble"
-Our LOVE is not a "play"

We LOVERz have lived history:
Burned in the flames of fire
Drowned in the abyss oceans
Jumped into the deep valleys
Broken into shards & pieces
Bled under swords slashes
Lynched at public spaces
And been crucified on the cross

Those who try to **** our LOVE
Listen this carefully:
Amidst all cruelty and atrocities
We LOVERz have survived
Our LOVE is still alive

In whatever state we are in
We're still LOVERz-BELOVEDz unite
That's the measure of
Our True AGAPE LOVE

We keep on calling each other
With our LOVE poems and songs
We keep on communicating
With LOVE energies and vibes

Let the world listen to our music
Let the world feel our LOVE aura
And change the way humans live

It is the same LOVE we sync-in
Through which each person is born
It is the same feelings of LOVE
That touches each human heart &
Burns in longing at least once
In their life time with tears

Those who have courage
Will continue LOVING and succeed
Those who are cowards
Will live life... - defeated...!
Let them search for success in "work"
But let us LOVERz-BELOVEDz -
LOVE each other aplenty now

Having lived so long in LOVE
Do not expect us to stop LOVING

Even if the world does not extend
Support to our LOVE
We will continue LOVING
And longing for each other

We brought a heart
Of peace and LOVE
Why did not the world
Understand & accept us?

We told each other
"LOVE YOU till death"
Why the world did not
listen to our pleas?

Only when:
Layla-Majnun were killed
Romeo-Zuliet died
Heer-RanZhana committed suicide
Shirin-FaRhaZd gave their lives
The world remembered its own guilt
And looks down on itself with shame

In the end - if world does not LOVE
The world will burn in its own wild-fires
The world will face calamities
Its own bane, scourged nemesis

This is the un-uttered curse
That will befall the world on the
Judgement-day, Apocalypse, Doomsday,
For making a LOVERz BELOVEDz wail





LOVE in the times of Corona-Virus and Covid-19



If one has all
The wealth of the world
LOVE would be missing
From that person's heart

If one had all
The knowledge of the world
There won't be
Possibility of seeking
"ONE" soul-LOVE within

If one had all
The power of the world
There won't be a wholehearted
Surrender to one's BELOVEDz

If one had all
The fame of the world
There won't be value for
Humble humility for anyone

If one had all
The worship for the God/dess
There won't be any respectful
Devotional prayer for BELOVEDz

Who is going to
spend your money
After you are dead?

No one can even buy
A tiny-little bit of True LOVE
With all the money of the world

"LOVE" is the ownership
Of two blissful souls

LOVE is as simple as that...
So straight forward & simple

LOVEz's communication happens
As soon as LOVE happens...!

It does not know to play
Games of hide & seek...
Games of dark & light...
Games of blacks & whites...
Games of wins & defeats...

How can one defeat the one
Who makes LOVEz ZugZwang?


What if one has
A million followers
But not a single one
To give & receive LOVE?

One may have bank-cartels
To bail them out of crisis
But how & where can one have
What LOVE requires from us:

The infinite cosmos within to
Sacrifice "all one has" for LOVE


Those who have servants
Won't empathize with LOVERz

Those who go to places of worship
Will never bow or beg for LOVE
At BELOVEDz door steps...

One can buy gold, silver,
Diamonds, gems & rubies
But one can NEVER ever
Buy A True LOVERz

Can anyone create romance with
Hundreds debit/credit cards?

Can your cryto currencies write
Soulful LOVE poems for BELOVEDz?

Can anyone purchase LOVE online
Through PayPal and GooglePay?

Who is going to sit in a palace
When there is no one to LOVEz?

Who wants such means/money?
Who wants pool/palace?
Who wants these cash/cars?
Who wants leisure/luxuries?
Who wants TV & mobiles?
What if one has acres of land?
What if one has world powers?

Nothing in one's life
Can ever equate to
LOVE, being LOVED & LOVING


If one thinks that being at
Malls, theaters, dance-floors,
Parties, Gymnasiums, TED-shows
Can fish & hook up a true LOVERz
One will be surprised to know
That "ALL" is a flee market
Where one ends up trading
A fake product of life-brand
To decorate your intellect with
A show-piece of "fake LOVE"
For the world to see & coquel

Do not even think of handing over
A purse or wallet
Full of Money, cards & cheques

A BELOVEDz just want
A LOVERz hand in hand....


Let the gold-chains
Be replaced by LOVEz
Embrace & hugs-garlands

Do not waste your life
Over a dime and a penny
Just let LOVE ignite a heart
With BELOVEDz illumination
And thus give birth to
A true seeking LOVERz

LOVE is the FOREVER gift
LOVERz-BELOVEDz gives
With ample after-life
Karmic blessings...

So take a real chance with LOVE
Give a break to your chase
Of being successful & famous
Of fighting your way to the top
Open up the heart and let LOVE happen

LOVE is free for those who LOVEz

That's the time
Upon realizing the TRUTH
LOVERz-BELOVEDz sing together

"If that is the case
Let us cut all the strings of
Life's tangles & knots
Let us soar freely
In the wings in flight
Of TRUE AGAPE LOVE"

LOVE is ZUGZWANG





ZUGZWANG: (noun) A situation in which the obligation to make a move in one's turn is a serious, often decisive, disadvantage.
