The mystery of Love

I walk down the road unabashed

Wearing clumsy expressions on my face

Looking at couples pampering each other

Thwarting each one’s argument in a race

—————————————————

The guy sings a seemingly gibberish tone

With arms hooking onto thy shoulder

He stammers relentlessly for translating

Her inner portrait to syllables of appreciation

——————————————————–

She is impatient yet innocently ignorant

To the caressing showered on her but gazes

In despondence searching for symphony transparent

Rendering the blushes yet to feel totally unfazed

————————————————————-

For once I swap to see myself in thou boots

Ahem! Her warmth deflates my chilled spine

As my fingers crawl down her hand to the palm

Involuntary forces make me kneel down with pride

————————————————————

She chuckles with anxiety but her heart thumps

Her pulse bridges through me pulverizing my fear

As I raise my eyes to meet hers in pure trance

Looking at my victoriously decadent image in her mirror

—————————————————————–

As my arms widen laterally in futile attempts

To absorb her brilliance in a single eclipse

Eyes close with my lips preempting everything else

Ah! I say something which demystifies the ambience

————————————————————-

My eyes open to see her in glee blushing around

As she lifts me up virtually in appreciation

She approaches me and closes her eyes in rush

A kiss of what I deserve grasps me in fluxation

———————————————————–

Alas! I am back to being the onlooker

I see the couple still fumbling meekly

Ensembles of laughter and sadness shower

As I continue walking on the road hoping bravely

That akin to the dilemma I can hold on to the bower

And some day have an answer to my girl for this mystery called love.

PS This post of mine presents love from a couple’s perspective. I feel this problem is there with most of the couples. As the saying goes you need not fear to express something pure as love .  Bhai after all  Pyaar kiya to darna kya :)
