A Collaborative Poem
DEAR! LEND ME YOUR SOUL
Subhash
Dear tell me honestly
What I haven’t done for you
Sunita
Well if you ask me such
I will say not much
Subhash
I purchased greatness of the tower
I borrowed the fragrance of the flower
Sunita
Yes you did as you had the power
But I like to spend my nights in moonlit bowers
Subhash
I leased the nobility of a tree
I auctioned my moon
Sunita
Good from the clasp of branches you are free
Good your moon can now sing love tunes
Subhash
I mortgaged my sun
I sold all my stars
Sunita
Oh! yes you did and now you are done
By doing this you healed my scars
Subhash
I’m the owner of a big void
Still I’m content with such a bankruptcy
Sunita
Your void ! My heart too was devoid
Of the love I wanted and the spiritual intimacy
Subhash
Do a favour to me
Lend me your soul for a while
So that I would be rich enough to recover this loss !!
Sunita
My soul was yours long ago
It was just my ego
Never a loss, things happen for a cause
In this birth we just removed the gathered moss.
