The relentless fight for love

love, Sestina

“The Relentless Fight for Love”

 

In my timid heart, feelings linger in my dreams,

Echoes of your smile and glee, pleasure my heart.

Unrequited, my heart yearns, grieved through the pains

That bites like the stings of the darkest night.

My heart whispers fresh, each memory with time

As echoes of courage arise, I grow deeper in love

 

As booms of courage, I grew deeper in love

Forgetting all lurking gloom of the tired night

I realign and keep on loving, you, my only dream

Each pang retreats, subject to severe pains

They fight against my soul to delude my tender heart

But I hold on to light, defying the sands of time

 

But still I follow the path of light, till the end of time

Even though I tarry relentless in unrequited love

The wind whispers fears, “empty are your dreams”,

Marking each storm that lights up my pains

But still I rise holding the courage from the heart

 I shun the evil words of the creepy tempest of the night

 

I shun the evil murmurs from the tempest night,

As I tarry for thee, my only love

The chains of darkness threaten to consume my heart

But still I tarry with thee, my guiding star and my dream

Even though the storm of the night ignites pains

I keep on loving till the stretch of time

 

I keep on loving till the stretch of time

I water the memories of our tender love.

Each now shines from the depth of my heart

As the darkened glooms of the nights

Tries to weaken my longing dreams,

Still I shudder at the fear, the sting and the pain

 

I shudder at lurks, sting and pains

That arises from the retired night.

I cling on to hope, peace and relentless love  

That blooms anew like roses in my dreams

The lurks at twilight now dissipate the night

As love shines and blossom freshly with time

 

The night and pains fades cowardly

As love and dreams bloom ahead

Then my heart and time beat loudly, entwined
