The Ballad of Love

When we are far, I hold you close,
When we are two, I see us one.
I meet a thorn, I think a rose,
When darkness falls, I be the sun.

The smile of souls, the wings of hearts-
Love sails beyond the whole, the parts.
It takes me far, so far from me,
We fly across the galaxies.
To learn the way, we lose the trails,
To learn to win, we lose n’ fail.
It takes my wrong, n’ makes it right,
To set me free, it binds me tight.

When we are far, I hold you close,
When we are two, I see us one.
I meet a thorn, I think a rose,
When darkness falls, I be the sun.

A dialect seeps across the time,
As silence seeks a rhythm, a rhyme,
Love starts from me, it ends at me,
Contains the cosmos in between.
I’m back to me, we meet again,
I’m new, I’m fresh, I’m free again.
My gratitude, as here it’s due:
You gave me love which gave me you.

When we are far, I hold you close,
When we are two, I see us one.
I meet a thorn, I think a rose,
When darkness falls, I be the sun.
- Vj.
