Gosh…the day is once again round the corner. I know most of u will not agree with me here. Still, I must burst it out.
Valentine’s Day is a thorough bore. Saying ‘I love u’ to your partner on this so-called special day almost means u are out of the passion for the rest of the twelvemonth. And well, what the hell is love? For me, it is unreal. Well, many of you may not. It is more of a feeling that u experience in any kind of event, person, action or sensation than just the love between man and woman.
For me love exists in the idea of the passion itself. I believe anything of the sort that is once incarnated, loses its flame. Like when you put down your ideas of poetry on paper it is longer poetry…they are mere good sounding rhymes. Poetry remains poetry as long as it exclusively stays in the mind. It is the feeling of the emotion that matters, not the embodiment.
Well, we still write, we still love, we still fall.
Don’t call me an escapist, pls.
Hmmm. Sure, the thoughts of your mind can warm, ignite, rejoice, cajole, persuade, love, romanticise etc. You benefit from it. The great poets have done all this and more to a million others. Sharing the poetry in your mind so that others can benefit is a noble gesture. It does not matter whether others celebrate it or not or critic it or not. The choice is yours.
I agree with you about Valentine’’s. It is too commercialised. But totally disagree with you on poetry. Whether it is in the heart or on paper when it is good poetry, one can feel the emotions spilled on paper to eternity.
aren”t we. sorry type error..:)
hi, i disagree, dont we all are simple humans? dont we need excuses to show our love? dont we need an excuse to ask someone how much he/she loves me? whats the harm? everyday love is mundane, spice it up with a bit of mirchi, isnt v-day meant for that.?dont you think so?
Sanjukta, I am very happy to read your post. You have done well. Thank you.
sanjukta i really agree with u their is no special day for one to show love, well thier is a mothers day, a fathers day and so on does it mean that you love your parents only for a day….
