Song of an ardent lover

The ardent lover in his verse,
Drenched in the deluge of passion 
Brimming with a divine love
Urges his beloved to preserve
His essence eternally 
In her sublime soul.
His presence lightens up 
The palace of her heart
His melody enlivens her spirit
His love blooms as a fragile bud
Fostered in her deepest core.
 
A master of words, 
Tagore soulfully connects with every loving heart
Magically melts the candle 
Of ardour with the warmth
Of his enchanting melody and verses.

Utopian Cliff 

Trekking up towards the utopian cliff
My spirit ignited with imagination
A hiking tempted by fantasy
Vision enveloped by the clouds of dream
Being reckless on the slopes of reality
I slid in the ascent
Losing grip on my thoughts
The peak obscure
Overshadowed with mist of illusion
I fell in the deep crevices of reality.
