A Realization!





When silence speaks
A thousand tongues,
My words can speak
But one.

And though my heart can
sense Eternity,
Beating in tandem
with yours-
Why do my eyes seek
And probe
And question?

The Language of Love
Perhaps, is one
I need to understand;
Still

And Still shall I be
I know, when I
Permeate and flow
As water-
As Life.
When I meet you
Where you have always been.

In me.

  5. I need to understand;
    Still

    And Still shall I be
    I know


    I remember this. I had missed this di'still'ed magic of word. But now, reading it again gives me the same amazement with more delicacy. Really, its just You.

  8. Thanks Usha for reposting because I just recently discovered your blog.

    Are you published? I would want to get a copy of your poems.

    I don't know why but whenever I read you I imagine Madhavikutty penning down her thoughts.

  9. Soumya has already underlined the magic words of the poem!

    I need to understand;
    Still

    And Still shall I be
    I know

    This is such a magic.. I inadvertently drew an analogy with myself! Keep Writing! The day is not far when everyone shall keep everything aside to hear from you!
