Fallen Leaves

Fallen leaves like this life
My darling
two days life only
what for this greed
craze of delusion and worldly fete !

Fragile, decayed hand
of this bond
how tangled as a spider web
from begining to end
colourful strings of flower
and the tiny world of us
With ups and down, accusation, defamation
and anger.

Burning like a blaze of fire
this heart of mine
my darling !
what was your best loved once
now suffocated in every moment
Wherever I look
Clouds dark and blue all around.

Words remain
In this mortal globe
Glory doesn’t die
body expires, mind passes away
hope, desire end
but see the
eternal love undying !

Since you have gone away
heavy this blueish body of mine
at all times
trying trying and wished to die
but only for you
I couldn’t , thought in mind
You will be left alone, break in pain
blame me and tell to all
look, look this man !
how lewd
selfish and coward he is

I am bound by your love
eternally my darling
In birth, in death
In life after death
and in another life
if a wish there to live
will have to live in dying
In each drop of my blood
In all my senses
In your memory
and
In this cruel unspecified
unquenchable time
of this world
of dark and green.
