Deprived of your love

Deprived of your love,
I become a mere wind blowing
In a whirlpooling storm

Deprived of your love
I am a fallen leaf in an orchard
Crushed under the feet of those
Who come to pluck juicy fruits

Being in such a state
Remains the fear tattooed upon my fate
For without your tender eyes
And your warm smile
Life's meaning is a mere echo sent out
In a black hole
Swiveling without meaning
In the deep and dark universe

Life and its temporariness is just illusion
Yet, fragranced with the flowers of your love
My roots stand firm 
While deprived of same,
I find no shore to look forward to
Whilst rowing my raft!
