Identity

Identity



What to seek next?
When my identity is you.
Life starts with  your name 
and will end in you. 
People wanders in sacred places,
But in love, I found you.

    I like that this can be understood on a spiritual or interpersonal level. Love is the greatest gift.

    love does tend to blur the distinction of identities and makes one get lost in the other.

    A very romantic poem, Ciphar. We are, at least partly, defined by the people we love and who love us.

    wonderful when love fills in all the places forming that identity...have to be careful putting it in others though as when/if they leave what do we have left...

    I too like how this can be interpreted on several levels. Love is the beginning and the end--a wonderful thought. Thanks for posting.

      Cifar,

      It seems like there has been an extra strength found with this new love. A stronger person has emerged...

    This is a conversation with God, isn't it?
    Lovely words!

    Cifar, it's wonderful how you have included your "other half" in your definition of who you are. That is true love!

      It is not about other half, but finding identity in God, It's a bit Sufism where one destroys elf identity in HIS love and merges self in HIM.

    I agree with Mary.As I went on reading those lines I got two thoughts..it might be related to love, but then I could relate it even to lord.
    Nice composition

Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti.

रक्षा बंधन - जिसकी बहन नहीं होती। Raksha Bandhan - Jiski Bahan Nahin Hoti. Raksha Bandhan is an Indian festival of brother-sister love in which sister tie a rakhi (sacred thread) on her brother's hand and wishes for his long-life while brother promises to protect her and take care of her in every possible way. Sadly the country which celebrate such a unique festival reports incidents of Honor Killing and has a high rate of crime against women. Lets pledge to respect each women equally this Raksha Bandhan as a mark of  honor for your sister. In this Hindi Kavita (Poem) I have tried to express what all those devoid of sisters are missing in their life. It is also reminder to all those who have sisters but take these advantages as granted without caring for their sisters.  Happy Raksha Bandhan to all. सूनी कलाई, सूना बचपन, सूना आगन हो जाता है, जिसकी बहन नहीं होती सूना उसका जीवन हो जाता है।  Suni Kalai, Suna Bachpan, Suna Aagan Ho Jata Hai, Jiski Baha...

At this time of the year ( Valentine Week) when the   Love is in the air    I am sharing my couplets (शेर ) which are based on these seven stages of love written at different times. I hope you will like my effort and share anything related to these seven stages of love at the comment section of this post.
