❤️ True Love ❤️

[One of the Poems from my Newly Published Poetry Collection: 'My Poetic Musings']

True Love

I’m overwhelmed!
By the flourishing
of your love and care —
Imbued with the aridity
of affectation.
Devoid of human histrionics.
A simulacrum of agape.

A suckling cradled
in a mother’s bosom
craves the nutriment
of the mother’s breast;
My infant-like heart
craves the nourishing
ooze of your tenderness.

Swimming in the ocean of the milk
of your human kindness,
Wherein my self-induced
semi-petrified soul
did get maceration ...

Who wouldn’t but bask
in the ambience of true love —
Which to me, you did communicate —
When, to me, you did say
‘I shall be your friend.’

A parcel of love in a verbal wrapping!
Despite a self-induced obliquity,
Having reneged on my first love.

Out of the woods,
I was
at the threshold.
Out of the blue,
Came the assurances of your amour.
Thence, I enthused
‘A quintessential syncretism
of sororal and amorous affection.’
That which you ladled out to me!
An attribute shared by Roojy and Rella.

Fear is False.

No one has ever made any meaningful advancement in life, being crippled by fear.
