Only If…by Alka Agrawal
Only If… by Alka Agrawal
The song of serenity
can be sung only if
silence sings
the saga of solace
as sojourn singers.
The diaspora of destiny
can be dealt only if
duty dazzles
the delima of death
as dancing debouts.
The forbidden fruit
can be found only if
faith finds
the freedom of forgiveness
as fortune favourites.
The life of love
can be lived only if
loving lies
in luck of lovers
as loyal life partners.
