Love Musings 3

Love is the most misused word on earth. To what length will one go to be loved and to feel needed?  Life is too short to live only for others. I seriously feel that if we devote a little time everyday to explore oneself in order to love the self, the world would be a better place. Ego and prejudice are what makes us see life with jaundiced eyes!

XI

“Love thy neighbour

As you love yourself, 

Hate not what he loves

Love not what he hates.”

I think…?

It’s time I changed-

My neighbourhood! 

XII

Love in a manner

Acceptable to society, 

It sets the rules, 

The path and the ways.

Hey! I thought LOVE was

Mysterious and Divine? 

XIII

As love is that entity

That no language can define

And no mind can fathom- 

So I can’t describe

The love I feel for you-

And hide behind “I Love You”

XIV

Minds meet and souls bond
Beauty seen even in its dearth, 

Minds and souls foreign mate

If bodies meet for body’s sake.

XV

Reflective life of a man in love

Starts with him and ends with him, 

Reflected in his every action

Reflections of his pursuit

Of righteousness and justice.
