SOMETHING I LOOK AT-50

SOMETHING I LOOK AT-50
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY

You love me
I love you too
Our love is unconditional
We feel  each other's feelings
We sense each other's needs
You are in me and I am in you
That is our love and bonding
Nothing but pure love in between

I will be made a man
But you will remain a child forever,
hardly affected by the change in time.
For you nothing matters
It is love and love all the way
From your first breath to the last
Your object of love is the same
Your priorities never change with the
Changing need of time and circumstances,
Whims and caprices
But I doubt whether my
Love for you will be the same

You are true to yourself,
Always there for me
To sacrifice every bit you have.
But man is a man,
Never full and complete
As you are.

My priorities keep on changing,
So is my definition of love,
Its language and chemistry.
I can't love you the same way
You love me
My rational mind and naked
Self-interest come in the way

I do not want to be a man.
With all my incompleteness,
Limitations and rational reasonings,
Let me remain a child at heart
To reciprocate the feeling of
Someone who really loves,
To have the beauty of its love
In all its colours,
To live and in love with it
Forever
