If this is love ? by Dr. Radha M. Parikh

The sky is dark.
The rain is dark and wet.
I cannot see, I cannot cry.
All I did was ‘love.’
If love cannot measure in years the yearning in my heart,
If love cannot bring fair play along as its companion,
Why love did come here at all?
Darkness and pain,
Sorrow no gain,
Love courts me with its promise.
I understood…I thought I id.
Love caught me in its snare,
 
Now I care no more for love or lack,
My heart is cold at times.
It thinks:
I cannot tell if love was ever my guest or I its host?
All I can feel is the cold dark pain of a void,
a nothingness now.
