'Can you love someone for a smile? '
't was justly questioned,
pondered for a while.
Outside an endless storm raged,
battles cries ascended,
miracles aged.
'Can you love a pair of eyes? '
Was it just a thought,
or a box of lies?
A wave of terror hit Mumbai,
weddings willfully wrought,
hearts left to die.
'Can you love without a dream? '
't somehow simply happened,
no preconceived scheme.
One bank after another fell,
Souls sleek 'n saddened,
under a worldly spell.
'Can I love you still? '
A mind set platonic,
or a feeble will?
Another superstar divorce,
heartbreak catatonic,
no sense of remorse.
'Stand with you I will,
so let me mend it,
this love uphill.'
Outside a storm still rages,
hopes are amended,
love's in cages.
