Are to love

 Posted by Nona

From Poet's Corner

And if you are to love,
Love as the moon loves.
It doesn't steal the night,
It only unveils the beauty
of the dark.

And if you are to love,
Love as the rain loves.
It doesn't wet the bodies,
It only washes the sad dirt
of the souls.

And if you are to love,
Love as the wind loves.
It doesn't drift away,
It only cleanses you to
the core by invading
through each pore.

And if you are to love,
Love as the sun loves.
It doesn't radiate heat,
It only pours its warmth
on you to enlighten your way.

And if you are to love,
Love as the star loves.
It doesn't delightfully twinkle,
It only reminds you that
not even death can separate
two hearts.

And so forth,
If you are to love
Love as the whole universe
and not just as part of it.

~Jasleen Kaira, And If You Are To Love
