Love’s Mystery

Kamrun unravels the complexities of love, its ephemeralness, changes, pulls, pressures; an unsolved enigma, in this verse, exclusively for Different Truths. 

Nothing is really granted forever.
Love, money, fame
Can be exchanged at any time, ever
Even thoughts, views, ideology
can be changed with time.

O My lady
My pure love
Do you think?
It is forever!
No, not really
Human dies and the body become soul
So, know thyself and reach your goal.

My dear lady
I love you a lot
But I don’t know
How long I feel
this affection for you.

O my love
By trapping into this illusion
For a certain time
If I behave as a loving one.
Please don’t be an emotional fool.
And don’t be trapped into this psychological game.
This is some advice
Never trust a poetic mind.

If you do the mistake
Then I must need to say
you are in a casino
so, anything can happen
Be prepared for that.

The world is a matrix
No one can exist
here for a long time...

Dress after dress and the body becomes soul.
Dress will be changed
Place will be changed.
And you and I will become
an acquaintance.

If you think
This is the truth
Then there is no fate
Everything is karma
And that is your act.
Then goal will be changed
And you will be changed
But the funny thing is that
you can't see the evolution.

O my dear
the fate is fixed
what you wear as a crown at birth.
Human a living being
So, he changed with time
That’s the reality and you can’t change.
So, acceptance is the blessings.
And ignorance is just a curse.

And do you know?
If you want to draw
the inner image of soul
Then you can see
It is so beautiful
Hundred of butterflies are flying
here and there
and try to touch the rose petals
It is so nice, so beautiful

But at the same time
You may feel hatred
If you see the inner hole
that is as dark as coal.

O my lady,
my pure love
If you ever seen the dark side of heart
Then you will never get trapped into this bish
the jet-black ditch.
That’s the truth
But the mysterious thing
Do you know?
That’s not pure love!
