Two Religions

Comes closer, the farthest all around
There is this pessimistic love between us.
The first time I witnessed you
Was on the balcony above,
Staring at the moon with rippling water on your face.

When I bent on my knees and kissed your palm,
Your smile enlightened the way
But it was just incomplete
Our story was incomplete,
May be you never saw a girl do this ever...

Within eyes of thunder I found your way,
Your fine beautiful nose rubbing against mine,
The darting river waters and the sunshine above
You told me it's not possible,
Paving way for a love quite hard to describe.

I was being too carefree
But someone just pointed out
Girl, you both belong to different Religions, do you think it's possible?
I silently smiled at him and said, I will love you forever,
Till then let me learn to fight, let me try to optimize.
