Love

a poem by Varun Raj

I was not a poet, when I saw you,
I had become a poet…

I was not a lover, when I felt love,
I had become a lover…

I had to listen the words of your love
But I never felt how it would be, it was not there…
Now I am rovering like rover…

I am not your enemy, when you nailed my heart,
you had to look me like an enemy…

I was assured by your promise,
but never being asked assurance before,
I don’t have anything with me, just a poor heart for you,
Now I am revering like reverent…

I am not a beggar, since I am begging for my lost love,
I had become a beggar…
