Imprinted

Imprinted

Never want your face

To fade away

Ever from my sight

Even if I lose

My sight someday

It would be there

Imprinted large

On the canvas of my mind

Just hope I don’t

Lose my mind

In the last days of my

Journey

      • That’s true. But expression differs from culture to culture. Some cultures celebrate it openly while others are a bit subdued.

      • Yes. But then if we leave aside culture and religions, it’s one of the basic feelings. It’s tenderness and intensity is second to none.

        Though some people as they grow old tend to cover and hide it under layers of so called maturity. Forgetting that when they were young they had succumbed to its delicacy at least once.

        And try to suppress when they grow old, it as we see in different cultures around the world.

      • Hmm… I guess you’re right Shashi. What I meant was the valentines celebrations. Not all cultures or people celebrate it. I believe that love cannot be attached to one day. Just like a mother or father shouldn’t be honored just one day a year.

      • True. But sometimes we take even love for granted. And these celebratory days at least make one reflect about its importance on their lives. Sometimes we need to be reminded. And being reminded of love, I don’t think is a bad thing at all.

        It’s wearing rose tints at least for a day, if not year around.
