A Love Story~~~

Love fell down,
Beaten up and tired,
Breathless and pained
For it would seem that its existence remained a punishment!
Yes, its right to bloom was snatched before it even came to be
Rebuked was it at each of its steps
Readily forsaken was it for that which it would never be!

Love fell down
And broke into a lungful sob
Humiliated, wishing it would cease to be
So that it would no more feel
And suffer!

Watching it intently, was Existence itself,
Existence, with its brow creased
And its mood, darker than hell's shadows
Existence so in love with Love
Yet, having to keep at bay
For without it, the whole of Creation would
Slowly disintegrate into nether!

Pained at Love's pain
Existence wondered whether it should crumble as well
For without Love's faith in its magnificence
Why, it would simply mean that it had failed its own purpose;
That of allowing all of its subparts to bloom into majesticity!

So breaking its own laws,
It set out to meet Love
Disguised into subtleness,
So that Love would fall prey to its mystery, and
Full of ardour, it whispered into Love's soul
The need for them both to be,
Held together by each other's support
As, without them,
Everything would return into what was before it all be
Inexistence and nothingness!

Love's soul morphed into a butterfly
Love's heart bloomed into a pure fountain
Love's broods melted into sweet flows of desire
And Love's pain turned into songs of hope
Which it shared with the rest of Creation!

Why, Love, rejuvenated, stood up tall and proud
Aware of Existence's need for it
And, acknowledging of its own need for Existence;
In all, a stability crucial for Life to keep on being!
