Love Kindles

Love is dying, not dying in nature                            
Dying in minds of living beings
Love is suffocating every moment
Minds are helpless in their trying.

Love does not want to pass away
Not now or later in the future
Love wants to linger unendingly
That is the only aspiration so far.

Love has no past, only present
This second is its best moment
Love intends to play love games
Irrespective of existing sentiment.

Love kindles as well as inflames
No matter how the surrounding is!
Love does not seek provocation
Never let opportunities to miss.

Love despises all false notions
Does not ponder ever on beauty 
Love is unique, non-comparable
Certainly does not like cruelty.

Love yearns for access to warmth
Wishes to raise the heat in the tub
Love mixes up no word in love
Knows only love and more love.
