Can you stop the falling rain ?
Herojit Philem *
Sky and earth, you and I are
But of clay,
Both of us have red blood
But of different groups
If you are a flower
I am a flower too
But of wrinkled petals
And of grey tendrils.
Sun and moon, we are
But of an early winter dawn
In the west
I am
Reaching home,
In the east
You are
Beginning your journey
It is the nature that makes
All these happen-
We being of clay
Or being a flower
Or appearing
Together
On the horizon
And it is also
That nature
Making me fall
In love with you
Talk no more
About the gap
Between
Us
Made by
Countless winterand summer
Let me love you.
If you use
Your strength
Against this
Answer me:
Can you stop the falling rain?
