अश्रू

वेडेच असतात अश्रू 
नाही? कधीही येतात
वेळ काळ नाहीच त्यांना
नको तेव्हा गळतात.

आपण लाख म्हणू
आता नाहीच येऊ देणार
पण ते येणारच... आणि
सगळे सगळे घेऊन जाणार.

नेतील च ते
तो क्षणाचा आनंद हिरावून
पण मणभर साठलेले दु:ख
आहे ना? तेही जाईल दुरावून.

पुढच्या वेळी आले ना.. की
मुळीच त्यांना आडवू नका
अवजड झालेले मन
बिनधास्त हलके करून टाका.

-Adi

My opinion about 'Love'

I was listening to my favorite song 'Saiyyan'... sung by Kailash Kher..... but I badly wish to know who has written it!!! This song has something in it.... something i did not understand in the beginning, but got it after i had heard it more than 5 times. To most people, this song is a sad song where the writer is mourning over his/her lost love!! But to those who carefully listen to the words... this song is sure about lost love... but there is no mourning!! The poet has fantastically described the feeling of being in love and then losing it!! Makes me think...
True.. often one does not know how to react, after losing your love... some people react very well,some become indifferent, some others go into depression, some get frustrated with life and some become violent.
Like the poet/poetess, I believe love is a compound of feelings. It is a mixture of happiness, anxiety, care and many more feelings.... but sure not ownership!!! If you think you 'need' to own your love... I am sorry to say, but you are not in love. This, is that slight difference between love and infatuation. 
Love is something that is meant for you and you alone... and if you really love someone, you will not feel the need for it to be reciprocated!! Does not mean that you won't be happy if there is reciprocation, but there is no 'need' of it!! If loving someone makes you happy, how can anyone take away this happiness??? This happiness belongs to you.... not even that 'someone' is capable of taking it away without your permission. After one point, even if that someone is gone from your life and you decide to move on.... you will always remember how happy 'being in love' made you, this memory will help you in your bad times. This memory will help you understand so many people around you. Like the poet says at the end of the song... you can keep decorating this feeling like you will decorate a temple, till eternity!!!
