Jorhat Ki Lxxmmiiee

Slowly .Ever so slowly ..She was walking towards me
Like rays of light on a morning twilight ,caressing.. gently piercing
Like thoughts ..like a song forgotten ..like haunting ..like my mothers hug
Gently so politely ..Like the relative of a distant dream she walks ..Towards US ..Me and her
Was she love was she beauty ,was she god ..Or was she just a human
Steps ,she took , graceful elegant and almost dancing
Wind waves and lot of silence ,there was music too at that moment
tears of joys ,were blinding my eyes , was I blind
Or did I not see , Her eyes ,she let me see
Invisible love , Invisible god , Invisible beauty
I am just a man , Imperfect lowly ..How can I reach for something holy
Lips the sacred lips , Her lips ,Divine lips
They uttered love , they uttered beauty , they uttered poetry
I am just a man , Imperfect lowly , How can I reach for something holy
It was light , She was light , It was morning so bright
And I was the son of a dark night and fearful nightmares
She the queen of heaven , princess of beauty
I am just a man , Imperfect lowly , ..I prayed forgiveness
For Finding her atttractive thinking she be mine
Light her brilliant light , showed me my shadows
I watched , My imperfections ,They atleast had eyes
They saw her beauty ,and they saw my ugliness . spiritual emptiness
Hypocracies and lies . Shallowness and callous spines
Why did she come then …my love , My beauty ,
my very lips she was when she worded her thoughts
I moved not , I said not a single word ,and uttered not even silence
But she was kind , she was graceful , and she was light
She came towards me and held my very hands
Assured me that I lived , Assured me that I breathed
Assured me a future , and assured to wash my sins away
It was lovely , It was morning , deep and whole and true were her promises
We merged into the days and nights that followed ,
Truly immersed in our togetherness , entwined in each other
Was she me , was I her , Were we together .
I dared not think , In terms of she and I
Together we were something totally different ,
Together we were life and togther we were depth
Together we were in our separatedness ,
Together we were in our distance of three days and nights in train
Peace , truly divine peace ..let her live in her anonymity .
She remained in me as a longing . as a heartbeat and a roseflower .
Alas .Terms ..rules of love and poetry …
Prevented me in knowing who she really was
Princess of love ,Princess of beauty .Truly divine mystery
One who coded computer languages behind a keyboard
With the mask of a human face !!
Ha the pangs of living together as strangers !we are yet to meet

I am just a Man imperfect lowly ,Is from Thiruvasagam ,A shaivaite composition of divine love .I hear it every day Find it very relaxing !
Ofcourse this has no pun ! no intentions . Just some words which I caught as they were seen escaping my thursay morning
Yeah it is worded from a longing of mine . But longings will always remain longings
