Whom to Love

Love is never for a person

But for beautitudes of the beloved

Appearance attractive, humor in heart,

Softness of voice, command on words,

Emotionally stable, sophistication at work,

Lifestyle simple, color sense in dress,

Artful in nature, kindness in conduct

And most importantly -

Morality in character, behavior honest

With a rider applied - nobody is perfect

Sky is missing in some, others miss the Earth

For any deficiency, compensation is a must

Love being purpose of the both

Both be serious in contributing their mite

Every contribution of the left palm to a clap

Needs equal support of the right

When one gets hurt, other must be curt 

To offer an instant 'sorry', even without fault

To save the love, not to hurt the lover

Revengeful reflection adds to feelings bitter

It's not a weakness but strength of love

Indicates how much they care for saving the love

Are considerate for love for one another

Persons adamant in their conduct

Self-righteous or self-centered

What the other feels or would feel

Remain unbothered

Looking for better options, once love is settled

Are not fit for love

Those without patience and stamina

Better keep away from this arena

It's a field where you forget what you gave

Without expecting, without being cared for

You feel final with what you have

Love is not a business for profit ever higher

And for choices ever better

Love requires transparency with nothing to hide

Nothing a secret, nothing to lie about

Doors open to each other far and wide 

Handling Doubts In a Relationship

A relationship is meeting of two hearts

Of different backgrounds and cults

Who can't understand each other so well

One likes something, other may hate

One reaches early, the other may be late

One thinks one way, the other differently

One may be perfect,

The other may fail to understand perfectly

Hence, doubts are possible

Until they know each other so well

And trust is enough, for doubts to quell

Until mutual trust is established

Both need care to be transparent

Not to create situations doubted

By not allowing any third in between

With spells and mists well guarded

Days are bright, nights are dark

All wrongs go in darkness of night

Making doubts to raise their head

If someone unjustly operates at night

Staying away from home without right

Saying Goodnight, still awake at night

Women being for hours at public place

Or closeted with men at midnight

Are often causes of parting away

Whatever be their mutual sway

Better such situations are averted

Or made transparent for being related

Relationship needs investment of time

For cultivation, as requirement prime

Thinking advance for each other's feel

Not to let doubts cover the trust as peel

Any doubt in one's mind once seeded

Earliest uproot by the other is needed

Justifying with being self-righteous

Without caring about what other tills

That is how the relationship, one kills

Assuaging hurt feelings of someone

Through the loveliest word 'sorry'

For a person winning a relationship

Is not a defeat but a sure victory

It is the relationship both must wish

If one's contribution is on diminish

The other must enhance their share

To succeed the relationship as rare

In a relationship, a person is the victor

Contribution to connection having bigger

For Success of Relationship Online

 Relationships online is a new development

Not much study has been done in this flick

Hence, persons involved are misguided lot

Think these work like contact relationship

Still, online relationships are not impossible

Provided both try make relation successful

By caring for and respecting feelings of other

Think not of the self but of the other partner

In relationships online, only words are bridge

Between friends located apart yet are furious

Hence persons with low command on words

Or low care for own promises trouble serious

No body language, no touches, no smiles exist

To make communication of feelings complete

Feelings exchanged are partial, not in unison

Not being felt fully by both partners as union

Differences in cultures and climates also exist

Make them to think differently, cold and heat

Winter at one place makes a person to desire

Summer at other, make the other to avoid fire

Hence, they lack sync of feelings and appeals

One feels attracted, the other repulsed feels

Differences in time make to behave different

Morning at one's place makes them energetic

Evening at the other causes behaviors erratic

Differences in currency values affect relating

Make earning power discouraging n elating

Things appear cheaper to one, pricy to other

One may feel superior, other being inferior

Different prosperity levels of nations of tour

Also make hopeful partners feel rich n poor  

Differing laws of nations add more difficulties

By not allowing marriage of hopeful parties

Key is sacrifice the self into the fire of love

For pleasures of the other without self-love

Take responsibility with 'sorry' for any lapse

Though the fault may not be own perhaps

And give credit to the other with 'thank you'

For something marvel in between the two

Be frank in requesting anything one desires

From the other with 'please' in loving fires  

Self-righteous n self-centered must be away

From online relationship, this not their way

If in Love, None is Good or Bad

In Love, None is Good or Bad

'Love true' is not expressed

By 'I love you' like words

But by feelings and by conduct

When such love exists -

Feelings appear in eyes

Conduct appears in sighs

Love needs no words like 'I love you'

But words like 'Happy', 'Glad', 'Joy',

Instant 'Please' asking for a favor

Instant 'Thanks' for a kind deed

For an unintentional slip 'Sorry', indeed

The bridge joining two shores

Is built gradually if the minds don't waver

For selecting the best if the kinds don't shiver

Both go on loving, gradually building the bridge

With care not to undo already built up ridge

While jumping into the pool of love

Trends don't matter on how to love

All goes with spontaneity

All goes with natural beauty

Love is built up from senses scatter

With no options for partner better

With no choice from multiplicity

It is loving the opportunity

It is loving the other and everything theirs

Jumping into the pool of love with no fears

Words 'I love you' are for probing sake

Often said to many often fake

No real intentions, whose minds waver

Wish to be choosy for a loving favor

Such persons keep on probing for whole life

Jumping from one to another

Breaking hearts, tossing feelings

Keep one to wait, honey-mooning with another

On finding fine, stamp 'you are the main'

Else, return to the previous to say 'I love you' again

They never love

They know not what is love

How to love, whom to love

They never experience love

But go on experimenting on love

This class of people is huge around

While true lovers are few on the ground

They know not good or bad in love

They just love, love, love

How Painful, It Is to Love

How Painful, It is to Love

A worker toils the whole day for making their two ends meet

At the end of the day

Body exhausted, flowed out all the sweat

Finds none to see the work and pay

Goes back home empty handed, nothing to say

To their empty belly, adds few sips of water

Which hurts, rather than eliminating the hunger

You may say 'sorry' to them and laugh out the matter

But it hurts me, leaving me scatter

For I know how much painful it is

For a lamp to burn waiting without hope fuel

Like trying to satisfy the hunger with water cruel

Because I am the worker who toiled

Craving in the dark night, how I coiled!

*

A poet dries up their blood shedding tears

Whole night to empower poetic words, evading fears

Morning arrives with full composition of morrow

Finds the World too lusty to listen to the poem of sorrow

What to do of the poem, and the emotions expressed

Composition valueless today, in future would it be assessed

The words made of blood bite them back, like dogs hound

You may say 'sorry' to them, and laugh the matter out

But it hurts me like spreading darkness, switching off light

For I know how painful it is to write the whole night

And find the World illiterate to the poetic words tried

Because I am the Poet who composed

Reverberating words, dark night, how I silently cried!

*

A lover waits for their beloved

Whole night feeling bluffed

Brute Sun arises with emptiness all around

Disappears the hope of arrival of the beloved

Wonders why they are there, what may be their role

Weeps in loneliness, none to tap shoulder to console

Lover's life lost in waiting, not even a shout

You may say 'sorry' to them, and laugh the matter out

But it hurts me like taking away somebody's birtright

For I know how painful it is to wait for the whole night

And find the beloved having nothing to realize

Because I am the lover who waited

Streaming tears, blank life, how I capsize!
