Kiss the Thorn of Pain

Taking up the courage

I type one more verse of love. 

Life needs a healing mantra. 

The joys bundle up in a corner 

I show the way, 

And know your road to salvation. 

I see ocean in your eyes 

Without the drop of tear.

You have the vastness 

Locked up like treasure in your chest. 

You are the clone of happiness 

With a hit from the dagger of plights. 

This metaphor will save me 

This imagery will light up my sky.

I wait for festive delights 

In the barren sky.

Expression is a greater joy, 

When life turns cold shoulder. 

Taking the beauty of the flower 

I kiss the thorn of pain.
