Symbol of Love

I asked people what is love...
some said, it is stupidity
some said, it is sane
some said, it is a sin
some said, it is divine
some said, it is distraction
some said, it is attraction
some said, it is passion
some said, it is bliss
some said, it is the sex
some said, it is the soul
some said, it is a disease
some said, it is the cure
some said, it is blind
some said, it shows your destiny
some said, it is when your tongue fails to speak
some said, it is the eyes speaking out your heart
some said, it is failure to succeed
some said, it is success in failure
some said, it is a war within
some said, it is peace outside
some said, it gives you nothing
some said, It is Everything!

As I sitdown, confused by these explanations
I find myself lost in an ocean of thoughts...
That is the answer, something tells me...
the ocean, the very symbol of love!

Everyone is true in their own perspectives,
reassures this image.. justifying thus...
It is just where you are that matters,
Playing with the tides or searching for the pearls!

You find noise and turbulence at the surface,
Just like anger, jealousy, hatred and passion...
The feelings that we play with, when on the surface!

The deeper we dive, we sense the silence- divinity and bliss
Just like gratitude, compassion, and serenity,
The purest of stuff each of us are made of!














In this depth of ocean, it says, your pearl finds you-
ending your life's search for eternity...
It is then that you see,
yourself in others and others in you!
It is then that you see,
God's work in a grain of sand and a drop of dew!
