WORDS OF LOVE; SONGS OF VICTORY…
We had been
through a lot together
When the storm
came, we hid under the rock
When it was
harsh on our skin,
We hid under the shades of the tree.
When in the
desert of difficulty,
We held each
other so closely.
The warmth of
our bodies kept us alive
We were like a
bunch of broomsticks
Together we had
become UNBREAKABLE
And INDESTRUCTIBLE!
Together we had
fought in wars of life
With or flesh
torn in deep
And our blood
flowed
Like the fastest
river
Thick and dark,
according to its magnitude
Yet we held our
fist high in the sky
With songs of
freedom in our lips!
We had been
duty-bound to each other
Lending our cold
and crooked hands
To lift and to
bear our burdens
Even though no
one asked us why
Our vision was
beyond the fate which awaits us afar off
Yet we been
together,
Calling us by
our sweet names!
They haven’t yet
arrived they say,
But who cared?
Who? Ever was
there all through our pains?
When we wallowed
in the shame of our torn clothes,
Our rags were
meant to be seen through,
Our naked bodies
uncovered!
One thing had
kept us and that
Which we have
found could not be snatched
Even though our
palms were feeble and old.
The bond was
unbreakable,
Even the hottest
of lashes could not separate!
Our undying love
seemed to be our watchword
Day in…, day out…
Then it was… it
has been… and now it is.
But just like in
a reverie,
Everything pushed
right behind us,
Yet our hands
still, stuck together….
Never let go….
Still spoke the
same words
Which only we
could understand…
The words of
freedom!
