Falling In Love

September 11, 2012

 

Tacit insults

to which even the canine blinks,

Explicit adulation

to which the countenance goes pink.

-

Such is being in love,

when secretly he thinks

of how openly that it stings?

-

Mildewed thoughts

that disgust the self,

Fresh leaves

that amuse the little elf.

-

Such is being out of it,

when to oneself she links

all the pain life brings.

-

Imprisoned lines

that free the heart,

Released sighs

that did us apart.

-

Such is being unsure of it,

now to themselves they drink

while those universes continue to shrink.

    beautifully expressed the blushing of love, the holding of hearts ,the indecisiveness following and the choice that leads the final submerging ..loved the last lines …

    love is within ,ever existing,
    when bloomed it reflects as blushing,
    old confused thoughts eradicated,
    by the freshness as newly sprung,
    blossoming begins…

    सुंदर अभिव्यक्ति!

      ये कविता लिखते समय मन में अंग्रेजी शब्द लव और उसके संस्कृत अथवा हिंदी समान्तर प्रेम पर भी सोचा. पहली बात तो ये मन में आयी की प्रेम और लव शायद एक सामान अर्थ नहीं रखते. लव जैसे शब्द का मार्केट बहुत बड़ा है. लव कह कर बहुत से मुद्दों का यूँ समाधान हो जाता है. वहीँ प्रेम की परिभाषा न जाने क्यूँ पर लव से भिन्न ज़रूर है. कुछ विचार ज़रूर भेजिए इस मुद्दे पर! जानता हूँ की घिसा पीटा सवाल है…पर फिर भी!!

      कमेन्ट के लिए धन्यवाद!

        सहमत हूँ आपसे! लव का बाज़ार व्यापक है। लव प्रेम से अधिक “शक्तिशाली” भी हो गया है, इतना कि भारत में भी आप यदि प्रेयसी से कहें कि “मैं तुमसे प्रेम करता हूँ” तो यह पर्याप्त नहीं रहा, “आई लव यू” कहना ही होगा। प्रेम थोड़ा आध्यात्मिक है, थोड़ा देसी भी। इस पर चर्चा की आवश्यकता है। बड़ी रोचक चर्चा होगी निस्स्संदेह। धन्यवाद।

      Really?? Thanks!

        royalty isn’t jewels, it’s mere tenderness & the flow here goes so tender;
        that’s how real:)

    Yes, that’s how one feels when one is in love, or the post affair.

      haha!! I can imagine how you could have related to this one! Your poetry speaks of these things more vividly though! ;)

  10. September 16, 2012 6:36 pm

    Ah, the joy and the pain :-)

    ahaha, you wove this neat little bundle of words carefully and splendid, PC… hey, didn’t you just ask me a while back if love could possibly be true? or, simply a mystery that is yet to be revealed? ahaha, something like that… hello to you ;)
