TO CHAPTER 1
BLEEDING HEART
When I behold you my heart bleeds.
It bleeds from my emotions,
For I have a fountain of love
Which only you can harness.
My heart bleeds from love.
For me, love for you is huge
As your twinkling eyes show love
And I am bound by your love
My heart pumps blood
Because my love is bold
To make you love me
As this is the best gift for me.
My heart bleeds bountiful lady
And seeking you makes me happy
And all I can do is to love you
And love you to eternity.
HYBRID LOVE
Love is supposed to be natural
It is supposed to be eternal
It is the working of nature in its finest
As there is no option for hybrid love.
The fuel of love is the magic of love
The heart accelerates in love
And the eyes get cloudy at love
For all it does is to mesmerize the sense.
Hybrid love is no love
It is the artificial growth of love
And it decays at a scare
For it has no foundation
Give me love but not hybrid love
So that I will grow in the gift of nature
Which is the giving of true love
An this is what we call love
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN
Where have you been, when I am here?
Waiting earnestly to see my love
Which is what I want to see
So that my heart may be merry
Where have you gone
And starve me of love
The love I desperately need
So that I can remain in this world.
Where could you be my love?
Why didn't you tell me?
That you were going to be absent
From the one you love
Please do not stay away from me
Do not break my heart
Do not hurt my floppy heart
As all I do is to fall in love
LOVE IS NEVER UGLY BUT BEAUTIFUL AT ALL TIMES
Beauty can never be ugly
Gold can never be muddy
Platinum remains a precious stone
So true love remains true love
Love remains ever constant
It is never adulterous
Instead it is ever refined
As it's never distant
Love is not what we make of it
Love is what it makes of us
As it aligns us to itself
Since we cannot truly control it
Love is golden
Love is ever precious
Love is life at it's best
As it remains ever golden.
MY ANSWER TO YOUR RUDENESS AND INSULTS
Rudeness and insult may flow in your blood
But it does not make you bold
However it brings you down as an ant
Which is exactly what you are in the world
Your rudeness does not touch me
For I will not allow such an insult to affect me
Because I am away above your class
As I was brought up with ethics
It is a pity you were not cultured
And that is why you lack manners
Because you never had ethics
So you grew up rude in the world
My answer is a golden silence
For my mouth cannot be base
Since I do not fall into your class
As I am above your rudeness and insults.
MY RESPECT AND LOVE
You have all my respect and love
For you have shown you are humane
Even in several crises
You have shown respect and love to your subordinate
You have shown you are a born leader
As the jungle we operate in has not made you a beast
But a man of respect and love
And that makes me owe you all respect and love
You are a model of leadership
And this is the only motivating factor I need as a subordinate
For you have stood by me in hard times
And this makes me indebted with my respect and love
I pray you continue to be who you are
For you are gold in nature
As most do not have your quality
Yes, the true quality of a rare leader in life
I LOVE YOU
When I first met you I thought it was likeness
But yesterday I found it was love
You tolerated my shortcomings with love
Your kind words of love brought me love tears
Who else would have done what you did
Who could accept my inadequacies the way you did
Only you could have done what you did
To make my day beautiful again with love
How can I express that I love you
And that I will continue to love you
For you are gems of love
As you are more precious than everything but love
I love you always
I love you day and night
I love you for all seasons
And I love you most for who you are
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO LOVE
Do you know what it means to love?
Do you know what it means to have heart ache
Do you know what it means to loose sleep over love
The answer is just you.
It means thinking of you all the time
As my love for you is the air I breathe
As it makes my life
Just because I am in love
Loving you is life
For you are the spice of life
And without you life becomes bitter
As there is nothing better than your love
Do you know what it means to be with you in absentia?
Thinking of all the good things you do and say in ecstasy
Thinking of only the moments that are happy
Thinking of the fairy world that makes us one in absentia.
I FOUND YOU
I found you in the spirit world
As we actualize it in this world
For we are created for each other
Which makes us eternal lovers
I found you even if you don't know
For your knowing only starts now
And this is why it is a sweet moment
For we shall surely come to meet
I found you a pretty woman
The only one who is made for me
The only one who gives love
For in you is the love of a woman
When shall we actualize the love
And cry the tears of love
As we remain in each others arms.
And get the greatest warmth of life.
DELIVER
I deliver in peace
I deliver with love
I deliver what is yours
For it is the fruit of your labour
I deliver with all my love
For this is the most I can give
For you also deserve more
But I know nothing more than love
I deliver in peace
For the peace of mind is beginning of life
As you are like love
I pray it comes in peace
I also deliver all I have
For that is what you deserve
For your worthy patronage
Makes me ultimately happy.
LOVE HOLDS LIKE A ROSE
Love holds like a rose
For we are wrapped like a rose
Making our minds and souls
As we remain eternally happy
Like the stem of rose love grows
They grow in all facets of life
Making us feel true love
As we grow to full mature love
My love wraps you in my soul
My love grows like a watered rose
For it imbues in me love
And makes my soul like rose
My love is red like rose
My love is hot like fire
My love wraps like rose
As I remain perpetually in love
MADE A STORM
I was like a calm sea
And you walked in to make a storm
You stirred me into a frenzy area
That has all the symptoms of a storm
You created a wave in me
As you pulled at my love
As my center can no longer hold
And nothing ever has been at ease
You brought tears to my eyes
As I cry perpetually for your love
Which you have shown in your eyes
The eyes that captivates me
You made a storm in my life
You stirred emotions in me
But please calm me with love
So that I may live a life of love
MY LOVE SHINES LIKE SUN
My love shines like the sun
And energize the world with love
As it does not set from East to West
As it continuously shines with love
My love radiates on the world
It heats the soul with love
But yet does not suffocate
As it only enriches the world
My love for you will glitter eternally
As it generates from eternity
My love has no end
As it continues to radiate to the soul and body
My love shines like the sun
As my love for you will never set
Because my love is constant
As it is only comparable to the northern star that is constant
