May You So Be Mine In This Life And Beyond Poem by S JYOTI RANJAN

You are the envy of the moon,
Nature has perhaps sketched you with a
penchant for beauty and perfection,
This may sound platitudinous though,
Deep inside my being,
I trust it to be true.

As you shimmer like a sunbrushed Magnolia,
And as your hairs in curls flow down kissing your cheeks,
Oh! my beloved,
I get hopeful with contentment when I see you like this.

Reasons always fail to comprehend as
what makes me love you so much,
My soul's obsession for you may have
disturbed you on many occasions, I know,
But this equally have flabbergasted me,
Superstitious I may sound, but this has
intrigued me enough, to do a past life regression,
I want to believe my fantasies,
that the technique shall bring out,
'you' to be my 'only-love' in all previous births.

Death after life and life before death,
It has bracketed one thing, that is the craving for you,
And the yearning for your love,
Everytime as I see my reflection in the mirror,
As I listen to my inner voice in the
deafening silence of mid-night,
I only wish,
may you so be mine in this life and beyond.
