Breeze Of Love-6-

Folder: 
Folder-2003













My beloved,

Say we are still students

In the school of LOVE

Say we did not yet graduate

And not sure if we ever will

Say we learned the hardest way

Say our teachers were the students

And the students were the faculty

Say we were unlearning what we learned

And learning what we should have unlearned



Say, my beloved,

We have been lost

In the meanings and its perceptions

In so many unanswered questions

Exhausted from being misunderstood

We went in all directions

To find ourselves

We have been too confused to express

When we don’t hold

What others expect

How else shall I complement your
poem but with a reply?

~~~~~*~~~~~~

Say "Yes" then pray
school never let us out

nor student of the beloved
ever assume to have truly

learn the way; nor imagine us
graduates release from class...

say, arrogance is found in this
fellowships of degrees and doctorates;

Then, I will proclaim my ingnorance
I am a clown who should be school

I am the fool who've tried
but failed to attaint the grades

The singer who would not be wise
the santuary of this place

Say that I am not a man but a boy
here still in the school of my beloved.
