In pursuit of love..

Info

Together we scale the greatest heights,

We plunge into the darkest depths side by side.

Together below and together above,

Together we go in pursuit of love.


The seasons change, the years roll by,

Yet one thing never changes.

With the make-up on, the act goes on,

To this routine, there are no strangers!


Diving into books, staring at screens,

Together we discover the shades of love.

We forget the whites, yellows and greens

And paint our lives with shades unseen.


The baggage gets heavier as time passes

And to lighten the load, there have to be losses.

First goes peace, followed by happiness,

In pursuit of love, we are pushed to madness!


Love, the temptress, lures us into darkness,

Haunted by nefarious thoughts we walk.

With despair and sorrow we walk ahead,

In search of love, we walk upon paths untread.


Those who dare to venture further,

Find that flicker of light, tiny, but bright.

In pursuit of love, they follow the light

To the end of the path, where waits a mirror.


Thirsty for love, they stare into the mirror

And in it they find the brightest light!

Surprised, they stare at their own souls

As the darkness gets flooded with, love, the light.


In the depths of the soul, love hides

While we're in pursuit of her on the outside.

Search for love in your blessings and sins,

For the pursuit of love is a journey within.
