Fetch me to thy Lap

adventuressmalik

Thy lap O Gaia my mother Earth

where we all offsprings rest,

and quench our perennial thirst

from thy ever-flowing breast.

 

Fetch me O beloved mother

to thy empowering lap,

for thy son is solitary and hurt

and unable to cross the gap.

 

Nobody can ever deny thy sons,

a chance to receive thy nectar,

Thy grace and this blessed love

is sacred and benefactor.

 

Nothing is more painful to me

than her aloofness and nonchalance.

My heart seeks her relentlessly

and the mind has lost its balance.

 

From trust springs the love

and from the love, sacrifice.

She, ignorant of my true love,

is turning me into an edifice

 

It'll be disgraceful to die

for such want across the gap.

before I vanish, O mother,

take me in thy graceful lap.

    contrasting..
    why seek, what makes you feel
    detached - a gap
    away from laps, denied to
    you
    when you have pillows, to
    choose from..
    seek the comfort, you deserve
    falling six feet, to find solace
    is a warping of reality's, fallacy..
    the inevitable, awaits
    best to strive for what you, can
    while you still have a chance..
    (a good write
    and yeah, I too feel the same
    sometimes, but
    it's a futile mindset
    best
    to shake ourselves free
    and look forward again
    if we spend too much time
    looking at what's below us
    we'll find our faces, smacking
    into our horizon's)

      Thank you, dear poet. I was looking for your attention for many days. To reply to your comment...When the connection is felt so deep like a placenta and beyond one's power or will to step away....what do we seek except interaction and experience just because of the way nature has made us from the beginning of the creation, Yan and Yin, Masculinity and Femininity, Consciousness and Nature, an idea in completeness. The only way to grow is to seek experience and interaction, till the time we need no more or merge into the experience itself. . Just the insecure mood swings of a mad poet flirting along the tangents of insanity
