“Knowing you are faithless keeps me alive and hungry.
Knowing you faithful would kill me with joy.” Mirza Galib
Fleeting movements of time,
To fill them with your love
Such isn’t my luck.
Yet in thoughts you are mine.
I lay no claim but to have a right to love
Independent of reciprocal demand.
In the heat of my heart’s desire
It blooms like an evergreen flower.
Obsolete are now the crippling
Shadows of day and night.
Eternal is the memory of your visage
Accosting me around.
You, who are companion
Of my silent hours,
You, who guide my chariot
Till my last ride,
I put my life in your hands
To love you through the end.
Savita Tyagi
