OBSTACLES IN PLATONIC LOVE

          

                               

I know what you desires  from me  
I also understand that your soul wants
To  drown  in my soul with its divine  embrace
Perhaps such longing is there in my heart too….


But what to do, in this spiritual embrace
Physical bodies come between us

The way to soul is through these bodies
These bodies have their own world
They are tied with invisible chains

They have their own limitations

They have their own compulsions

To get into one relationship
We mortgage our soul for ever
The soul remains thirsty till the

Body becomes dust and destroyed


For our living, we build a web of dreams

In our own minds- unreal though they may be
We spent intimate moments
With the loved one in that web
Sometimes we became angry,

Sometime loving, sometime forgiving

We live the layered  double life in self doubts
From time immemorial, love has sacrificed,

Think when did we live for ourselves
