Her happiness was
often an illusion
of her miscreant mind
Appearing in disguised shape
encroaching upon
every little space of her heart
Shattering her valiant walls
capturing her free soul
shrouding her smiles in a concealed veil
It was not that she wasn’t aware
or was naive not to understand,
but love as much could empower
also had the power to cloud the mind
with a state of deliriousness
As she watched the proceedings
with helpless eyes
and she drifted along
hoping that the insanity
she was caught in
would also bear
someday an unfeigned sight
And for that day to arrive
she lived
gracing a poignant smile

Beautiful description of love — and deliriousness. 😊
Thanks so much Krishnapriya. Much appreciate your thoughts
pyaar mein paagal hona. Isn’t it strange? We try to be pragmatic, logical, focused – yet the very nature of our existence is love — the glue that connects us all – and makes us delirious in an inexplicable way. Thank YOU for lighting the torch on this in your own wonderful way.
