Notes About The Poem

In Search of You

walked and walked tirelessly for miles and miles 
              crossing vast dales and steep soaring mountains, 
               in search of you, my beloved, found you at last.. 
                How did I not know where my true love was! 

                       we met at untainted dawn of life 
                  when we hardly recognized the passion  
                  between two souls, but the day you left, 
           my world broke down as sandcastles on a sea-shore, 
               I was a crushed, forlorn, broken-winged bird, 
                       you tip-toed softly in my dreams, 
           your angelic face shone like a shimmering star in obscurity. 

                endless journey of love…in summer, in winter, 
         my eternal quest continued even when it rained incessantly..
                       stormy rough nights, the blustery wind 
                   whooshed and howled, I was in ceaseless pain. 

                 All my life I walked and walked tirelessly for you, 
             miles and miles of vast dales and steep soaring mountains, 
                      You are finally with me, my life at harmony 
                    How did I not know where my true love was!

Valsa George August 4, 2022 at 10:47 PM I am glad your incessant search finally ended up meeting with your love! When love governs our hearts and when it becomes a burning passion, any amount of pain or sacrifice, it demands will seem trivial ! Now since you have found your love, live happy ever after, like the hero and heroine of the fairy tales! Much enjoyed this song of love, Mala !
