For My Venkat

I want to tell my sweetie pie how sad am I to be away from him.
Heaven showered its mercy on me,
So that I could meet you.
When ‘I’ became ‘We’
In a short time we said "I do"

Why then these clouds of darkness?
Why these tears of separation?
I realize that love is madness,
A satisfying feeling of deprivation.

In your love, my darling
I have forgotten the world.
Am waiting for bells to ring
To fly into your arms like a lovebird.

No gems or jewels enamor me
For you are my crown.
In your deep brown emotive eyes
I would like to drown.

I pray to the Heavens above
To be merciful always in all births of mine
So that I am worthy of your love
For you alone will my heart always pine
