Death of loved one
Is difficult to endure
But death of love itself
Is impossible to accept
At times
Just like a bird
It simply flies away
No reasons given
For some death of love
Is slow and painful
Resentment just grows
Like cancer
For others it is a sudden death
Heart simply stops beating
For the other
It leaves behind a void
A wasteland of promises
Love may seem a gift
A burden, a nostalgia
A baggage or a lesson
Just like life itself
Love can grow at unusual places
It can grow roots
In most hostile ground
And bloom like a wild flower
Love is a life breath
Breathe it in
As long as it lasts
Cherish the illusion
It often brews a storm
Out of mere flapping of
A colourful butterflies
On a lazy afternoon
Just like a storm
It rages and ravages
Dazzles with rain
Light, colours and rainbows
For those who claim forever
It becomes a habit
A known rhythm of heart
That resonates
Till the vibes lasts
Then there is that rare Love
Whose beauty lies in its brevity
Whose grave you build within
Which gives you strength
To endure its passing
Hate stands no chance
In comparison
Love lurks in nooks and corners
In that gentle pat
Love has life's back
