Cycle of Love - II

Heart,
The lord of heaven of love
Dwells
in the bliss of meditation
meditating on the beauty of love
When struck,
by the impermanence
of this physical world
Falls !
falls like a river over a cliff !


All the loves
and lovers
Meet
with
the time of death
like
open butter-lamps
in a windstorm !


In part two, I have delved on the realisation regarding the limitations and impermanence of the physical aspect of love.....when this dawns on oneself....does one be able to transcend the physical boundaries that we draw and the limitations we thrust on ourselves - by the world as we realise and live in.....and when one is able to do that......does one realise the perfect love !!!

Cycle of Love - Part I

After happiness comes misery
After misery comes happiness
This world of Love
constantly rotates
between
these two poles.

When
one is on the peak of love
becomes captured also
by the noose of
lust
(alas many a times
akin to the death knell)
like an elephant
tied to the chain

Everything
in the realm of love
eventually
burns
in the flames of impermanence
A fire
blazing in the forest
consumes
trees
as well as
the flowers !


I have thought something more on this.....hence have mentioned as Part I. The next part of it, I will put into words tomorrow.
