Lion and Dove

He was the king of lands

And she was an ignorant dove,

The greatest mistake they did was

One day they fell accidently in love...

In her noble white bosom

 The lion found compassion, unseen in his life

And she admired him dearly

For his strength and might so rife...

He called her closer

 She said I am afraid

 He ensured, 'I'll be light for your fears!'

 'I trust your words' the little bird said...

She flew down to him

 All blinded in love

 She hugged him & adapted to his land

 Forgetting the huge stretches of sky above.

He poured on her

 Rains of love and emotions,

 At times evading the dark nights

And at times fighting all commotions...

But they forgot

 This simple fact,

 Between the sky & land

 A distance is universally kept.

When he kissed her

 Her fragile torso bleed profusely,

 And her attempts to cuddle him with love

 With pricks of her claws gifted him agony.. 

Yet they kept close

 Believing someday things would work out well,

After all love wasn't mere enjoying fair lands

 It was also a vow of being together in fires of hell...

They defied their pains for long

 But nature could never be defied,

Between the growing pain each moment

 Somewhere their relationship died...

And the king moved to the forest

 Forgetting the dove when hugged by queen of lands,

 And the dove looked up at sky

 Leaving no footprints on the forgotten sands...

Yet somewhere with air currents of yesteryear

 He could find his mighty heart pound,

 And the sight of lands still left her statuesque

For the love in her life lost and found...
