Love Looks Not With The Eyes
(Title inspired from William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream")
Love looks not with the eyes,
In recesses deep, it sits and yearns;
It seeks not recompense, nor a prize,
Once kindled, it forever burns.
A flush of woe adorns its face,
As it quivers like a falling leaf;
It flaunts sorrow with a grace;
Under sequestered canopies of grief.
It treads the paths less traveled,
Where familiar winds do not blow;
The gleam of love when unraveled,
Retreats to the skies to glow.
