Follow The Heart!

(Contributed by : A guest poet (NW) who wants to remain annonymous :-))


How marvelous this organ called human heart;
It enslaves the brain and makes it command the body;
To journey to a destination where the heart wishes;
Though togetherness in life is next to impossible!

And though many a words were left unspoken;
Yet telepathy finds its place where gaps needs filling;
And, so the yearning hearts damned the reality that both knew;
Thus, into the darkness the two souls ventured.

Holding hands and gazing at the moon;
Biting winds freezing the skins of the poorly clad souls;
Yet; listening to the gushing sounds of the rivulets;
The cold cliff that they sat on felt like a palace fit for the king!

A distant bark of the musk deer in the silence of the nights;
And the brushing sounds of the swaying trees;
Brought to reality the high flying minds of the beings;
It was then a time for realization, time to descend down to earth!

When the heart follows a relationship mired in futility;
The world shuts and we follow the biddings of our hearts;
A thousand words are said with a single touch;
The silent moments of the dark, sealed with a kiss;

Thenceforth the path this leads to unknown;
Shrouded in mystery, the distant future;
Unfathomable, bleak, wavering;
Ah, but present is bliss…. So, Follow the heart!!
