Glimpses of Sentiments
FRAGRANCE EVEN IN TEARS
Oh decoration of the heart ! You do not reside in any temple, masjid, any sect, any palace. I came to know about it. Thinking that you have been residing in a temple, on many occasions I went there. But before I reached there, keeping there some sign of yours, you had already left it. Even after roaming, wandering, running here and there I just could not find you anywhere. I got very tired. And at the end I looked within my heart and what a great surprise
1 indeed saw you there but absolutely silent. You are there but you do not speak. As if speaking is not there in your nature. 'I am present'- even telling this, you do not like it. And without calling you.l. also do not get mental peace. I do experience your company and yet my meeting is just like not meeting you; Isn't it? Because inspite of shaking you heavily with a view to awakening from sleep, shouting your name loudly I just do not get any kind of response from you. Love with you is just one-sided; to accept is indeed very difficult.
Whatever plans, strategies questions I had prepared for our meeting all those have failed. I am standing on the banks of a constanty running river
