Prabesh Chapagain
The depth of the infinite skies,
I gauze in your eyes
In your smile,
I discover the alibi for staying alive
Your laughter and tears,
They are the seasons of my love.
Your silence, a celestial hymn!
Serenely, at surrender I am, when with you
A soul in unison beyond time
With you, an innate rhyme I am
Always in tuned with my roots!
With you, a traveler I am
‘Right’ at my destination!
Many a deaths I died trying to live but one ‘life’
Aeon, after Aeon that I spend chasing but one ‘desire’
Your love is the very thing that reminds me,
I’m a lover I will never die.
