LOVE

Childish tho the rendering might be...it speaks my heart..

People called it the most beautful emotion;
Unawares I lived with that notion;
I believed in it so long;
I sang it in every song.

It came without intimation;
Inability to curtail it was my limitation;
I believed in it so long;
I sang it in every song.

In every nuance, in every gesture;
To all of life i added a different lustre;
I believed in it so long;
I sang it in every song.

There was no promise, no betrayl;
But every moment seemed like a trial;
I had believed in it so long;
I had sung it in every song.

Life resumed, but unlike the pheonix;
Once burnt it couldn't rise again from the ashes;
My belief was proved wrong;
My voice now carries no song.
