For me,
love was
my favourite
pale yellow chiffon dress
or may be
my light brown hemp neck less
Brightness of diamonds
placed closely on my fingers
Or darkness of black lines
around my eyes
Love,
may be smiling, giggling or crying over long phonecalls
Or spending hours and hours
and someone’s savings
in a overcrowded mall
Tell me.
how could I realize love can be
more than my imagination,
and your life
It could be choosing
sleepless nights in dark forests
filled with pointed stones
when chances to throw your body
over a cushy bed
in a warm room
is still on
How could I know
how it feels
to take a bullet
directly on your chest
only to
protect the soil on which you were born?
And we, whom you left
in our five star rooms
to sleep peacefully
watch movies with bowls of popcorns
will never understand
what you did for us
even though
we are not related with relations
Today
When I saw you
sleeping peacefully
in the arms of tricolour
and 21-gun salute
could not touch your ear
Today when
thousands of bodies like me
with tear filled heart
raised their hand
I realized
my heart can never love the way
your heart does
and
your soul can never be touched
with my prayers
because
I have never been there

A trial to express the unconditional love every soldier feel for their country.....A tribute to Indian soldiers and and soldiers of any other country, sacrificed their lives for their nation
We can try to feel but I am sure we can never feel what a soldier feel for their nation because we were never in that situation..we have never been there
