My Love Is Not Dependent On You

Poem on selfless love

It doesn’t matter whether you love or care
Togetherness or separation is not the question

You may curse or kiss me
But the love that flows is uninhibited

Your careless words may hurt like an arrow,
Exposing the attachment of my ego

But deep down, I know,
I am not here to threaten your independence

You are free to do or be what you are
And I do and be what I am

It is my heart’s choice to caress you
irrespective of whether you feel so

Like a doggy wagging my tail
My dangling tongue wetting the floor

Each time I see you
An innocent love jumps out

Not dependent on your reciprocation
Its existence is pure in every manner

Love is all I feel
Love is all I become

No mind, no ego, no questions
Love dissolving all the barriers

My love is a rebel against society
and a prayer in solitude
