In Quest of My Love
In quest of true love I tunnelled my way to other side,
But unseen forces had moved my love to another side!
Flower gardens no longer bloom where she does not reside,
Wilted flowers weep her absence to guide me to her side!
I hover around like moth amongst flowers that have died,
looking for myriad blossoms that would be lover side!
amidst devastation wrought by thieves of my tender bride,
I see blossom of flowers wave in breeze to point her side!
With the courage of true love and speed of a power ride,
reach island blossom! awake from my dream, next to her side!
In perfume of love, romantic whispers deliver tide,
barren is life if lived without love! Krish, stay by her side!
