Endless Poem

I can hardly breathe

This is not the air for life

My pulse drops

Strangely it reminds me the lines

From my previous half-dead poem

“I’m here to love you

And talk to you endlessly”

I’m here talking to you endlessly

But I can see the end

In your eyes too

This is not the world I wished for

This is not that planet

This is not even that realm

Where endlessness of wishes

Are valued, nurtured

Beyond its finite endlessness

I have crossed my heart for you

Till eternity

But I can’t say this here

This is not the place, my love

This is not that realm

Where you and I can stare endlessly

Into each other’s eyes

And become one with the eternal flow

We are on a wrong planet

These are not our people

They don’t know love

Love can’t be taught!

Cannot be taught!

Can never be taught!

We can’t teach a fish to swim

A dog to bark

Or water to flow

I’m telling you

This is not our place

I can’t ask you to come with me

But know this my love

You can’t live here either

Like this is not a place for me

You don’t belong here too

So if someday

You are fed of this finitude too

Shout “Love” seven times

Or whisper it forty times

I’ll be there with you

At your first shout only

Or at your first whisper may be
