To Leave Is Harder Than To Love

To leave is harder than to love 
          

To leave is harder than to love.
The bond bridged by almighty above.
Holds a new definition now.
Not to be together again - a vow.

To go to - our basket of memories
And taking each other's failures and glories
To take away , what each liked.
To unthorn the heart, spiked.

To forget each other - to move away
Will love forever - did they say?
Hopes and promises all fake 
Hating each other, for each other's sake.

To fight - to seperate- to crave 
So be meek but brave 
Filling bags of emotions and tears
I leave - with a heart, which bears.

Nothing now can hold me back
Yes, somethings I have, many I lack
But how will I live- from here
My life is not life, without you dear.

The world of emotions - broke
Melted by soul - a cruel joke
Dissolving my innocent arrogance.
Do I still have a chance?

O! Why am I thinking again the same
Why on thought of love, comes your name.
Why I am so restless again.
Am I feeling, the eternal pain.

Which peirced the chest of all
On whose grave, who crawl
One crave- for a second of love
A touch a blessing a white dove.

My arrogance may feather my pride
To leave my love and chide
But the pale child which hides in me
Ask ' my lover, last time can I see.'

I broke with him- we both cry
Sitting on a bench- people going by
No my dear- she is gone
And to this night there is no dawn.

The empty soul of mine sits alone
Mourning for my love- which is gone
Penetrates me with his deep eyes
Wasn't it all, falseness and lies.

I had an answer but dared not speak
As he is immortal and I week
Said he ' have seen ages and ages of love
When I was not in you - but sitting above.'

I have been in bodies of priests,cheats
Butchers and rogues- but none beats
The shallowness of yours - I hate 
But for 30 more years that is my fate.
