Ravi Sathasivam Poet Light Verse

If You Are Not Close To Me

If you are not close to me......

Can I start my day without you my love
Your absence in my house dries me out
I have become my own shadow in my house
and its makes me to draw in a ocean of sadness
Day after days and night after nights
my thirst of love brings me nothing but tears
I silently think you from a distance
and I feel your love throws at me with helpless
If the ocean were not in love
then the waves will have no strength
If the sun were not in love
then the lights will have no brightness
If the moon were not in love
then the nights will have no romance
If the wind were not in love
then the music will have no voice
So, my love if you were not close to me
my life will be in dreary.
