But having exhausted by enjoyment the other two works (viz., good and evil works, that have begun to yield fruits), he becomes one with Brahman.

i wish to dedicate this poem to Srimathi Sridevi, who is my great friend and my future friend Sriman Ram; May Lord Siva bless these two great souls and guide them forever

Soul Survivor
The giggling sound,
From your bangles,
Which get arrested,
Themselves around thy hands,
Make that poetry,
Generating the breeze,
To sustain my life!
In the chill of the air,
Your fingers shiver,
Trying to get the magic touch,
That can rest the limbs,
But make thy body shiver!
Are you a girl my Angel?
No you are my garden,
With the colorful flowers
That will add flavor,
To my colorless dreams!
Let the auspicious drums,
Proclaim to the world,
The procession of a great Love,
First time on earth!
The great love letters,
Pages and volumes,
I get at a glance of your eyes,
Those shower the flowers,
Scenting my being,
But transforming into thorns,
Spoiling my nights,
Day and night!
Oh Angel!
Just put your fingers,
On the wounds of love,
That can translate,
This beast into God,
Without any intermediate!
But where is the hold,
For my oscillating body?!
It’s your shoulders,
Nothing else on earth!
The fraction of the moments,
When I melt not seeing you,
Seconds look days,
Trialing me for months,
And testing me for years!
Oh the tune of my Melody!
My Angel!
I shall stand back to back,
With thy soul immaculate,
Accompanied by the ragas
And the beats of love!
I shall proclaim thy Love for me,
And hold the passionate honey,
That spills from the music,
Gestating in thy mouth,
In my arms with dedication
Without splitting a speck,
And dropping on earth!
Hey Music of my being
Sustain me in you!
