#worshiping - Hello Poetry

They say that they despise idol worshiping, But it's easier said than done, As they still recall their names lavishly. Often around their neck they are wearing, But he never asked them to do, A miniature replica they frequently wear.

Unrequited Idolism

They say that they despise idol worshiping, But it's easier said than done, As they still recall their names lavishly. Often around their neck they are wearing, But he never asked them to do, A miniature replica they frequently wear.

Yes, I am the unlucky young man, One true lover fabled about widely, I'm the one who loves you forever, Surely I'm not achieving anything, Loving you is just like idol worshiping, I pray you come to life sometimes, Especially in the moments of heat, In the days of loneliness and passion. But just like idol worshiping it's vain, As you don't come any lonely times, Now I know why idol worshiping is bad, Loving you is much like self-harming, Surely I must change my mental makeup, For I'm the one who suffers in this, One stupid lover pointlessly loving you, Yes, I know that I should change. But the question is whether you are another failure of mine.

Loving You Is Just Like Idol Worshiping

Yes, I am the unlucky young man, One true lover fabled about widely, I'm the one who loves you forever, Surely I'm not achieving anything, Loving you is just like idol worshiping, I pray you come to life sometimes, Especially in the moments of heat, In the days of loneliness and passion. But just like idol worshiping it's vain, As you don't come any lonely times, Now I know why idol worshiping is bad, Loving you is much like self-harming, Surely I must change my mental makeup, For I'm the one who suffers in this, One stupid lover pointlessly loving you, Yes, I know that I should change. But the question is whether you are another failure of mine.

Wait before you start thinking, You should wait and complete this reading, Can it not be a tool for worshiping? Inspiring idols of deities like Durgā, You feel so cared for by their motherliness, Can you otherwise visualise an imaginary God? Teachings from the idols of Saraswati, You get connected to a Goddess's wisdom, Where else you'd rather gain blessings from? Wealth from the idols of Lakshmi, You gain financial security & confidence, Or is imagining a formless promoter God easy? Cutest idols of deities like Gaņeshã, You will love a naughty deity Bãl Krshņã, Why should you not use idols for worshiping? Mature idols of deities like Šiva, You would feel them bestowing their calm, Should it not be fun visualising them? Statues are made with dedicated love, They all invite such respectful admiration, How would you ever feel the hatred? I am aware that none of these idols is God, Neither stones nor pictures can be Gods. But what bad is a peaceful polytheism? Do not please be jealous of their art, And do not hate idol worshipers. Feel confident and so peaceful, Try worshiping stone idols.
