The Pyre of Love
Dark night, gloomy clouds
Fears of life-controlling the glow of my face, loud and proud,
I pinch my eyes with each drop of rain,
Touching my face,
like pearls falling on the floor,
Tender and hard, strong and yet vulnerable.
Mixing with my tears, as fresh as dewdrops,
longing to be merged with nothingness, embracing the quality of emptiness.
Dear friend, this is not the story of a breakup but of an undeniable, eternal love. the love of a soul...
I sense drowning in the river of my pain, every wave feels soft but leaves a dark stain,
I feel my soul going deep and drowning
I float lifelessly, no sun, no warmth
it's only me and my experiences trying to stay afloat and trying to walk on these waves
my knees trembling, my sinking heart,
Gone are the days when worldly pleasures seemed much like a missed chance,
but I remember those happy times,
like a train going home, to my people.
But now?
via the route of society's judgments
and finding that people don't recognize you now?
I see rain falling on them and piercing their hearts.
looks like the rain bought its dagger today,
soft yet sharp,
bleeding hearts and roaring moon,
A forced love towards judgments,
Leaving that girl under the rain and walking as the most societally acceptable one, for what...
To gain acceptance and love?
Because I thought among all the lies of the world, the biggest one is LOVE.
But I couldn't let that girl drown,
in fact I can't let the uniqueness of that human sink into the abyss,
I sprinted towards her and lifted her up like a star in my hand,
the atmosphere changed,
Because love is the conqueror of all,
Because love is the soul of all,
Because love is the prayer we need,
Because love is the absolute power of life,
Because love is the fire of every pyre,
Because love is the thirst of every human,
Because love is the truth of every lie,
Because love is the tear of every human, we bleed love, we breathe love in various forms, in its most refined version,
and still don't pay heed to the magic it does.
Because love is the end to all,
Because love is the goal of all.
the love of accepting others as they are
the love of understanding others
the love of helping people to make the battles they face easier
coz strength doesn't come from the number of people behind you
But with the amount of hope within you.
And this is how I found myself, I found myself.
