Lyrics And Waves
Entering the skin and beyond (Poem)
--
The whole of the body
turns into tranquility
meaningfully so
whose other name is joy
when the words of lyrics
travel over
the waves of music
to reach the finest soul;
cassettes played
by mind
songs unleashed
by heart
the heart feels the words
long before they hit the ear
the music and lyrics
made for each other
what betides then
is fistful of love freed
from the trap of lust
no rules followed
no conditions forced
no desire felt to escape.
Music being in marriage
with the soul
launches a deep trance
feeds my heart
with an obscure emotion
and dusts of longings
until it is a sated ocean within.
Is it one of serene achievement?

If you like reading what I write on Medium, I would like to appreciate it with all my sincere and cordial heart because it is your act of reading that inspires creators and writers like us to indulge in the act of writing even more intensely.
I believe — and I am sure there are millions who do — that words in writing have power to connect and stir incredible human emotions.
Poems, especially, inspires ridiculous passion and terrific creations you have never imagined before. It has been one of the few most influential giveaways since the 19th century era. And it hasn’t faded even now in this modern society.
Poetry books that carry unique poetic expressions stand strong even today. One must read a verse or two to believe its own worth and value on world stage. After all, it is a gift of expression to cherish.
