No prescription

Love defies logic and description

No one knows its true definition

And when one day it breaks your heart

To heal there is no handy prescription.

  1. Utterly true is this logic
    Love, sometimes it’s black magic

    The love that smotes and smites
    Leave marks of all it’s bites

    And, as you say, nary a prescription
    To heal all that burning sensation :)

    Do forgive me Shail… have been all rheumy and rhymey of late. Must be some virus I got from reading too much poetry in class, and engaging and pushing kids to try their hands at least at rhyming or alliterative writing :D !

    Lovely poem, as usual, Shail. You always hit the nail, right there, on the head!

  2. As the seed breaks the ground to grow into a tree
    so too love breaks the heart to set it free
    there is no need for medication just let it be
    over time you will be able to think about it and feel happy.

    • Hmm… you hit the nail on the head Uma. That’s the only thing that can mend and make it whole again. But true love…. it is so rare. :)

  3. Oh! to have been touched by this madness
    To have heard the clinking shatter of our fragile hearts
    Me thinks, Life is worthy of living
    To just have known what it is to Love.

    I loved this. :) It renders itself to a need to say more.
