Poetry

Forbidden love

Katyayani

Were the stars in love?
Did the sky pull them apart?
Were the sun and the moon in love?
Did he worry he would burn her?
Were the flower and the pearl in love?
Did their dignity make them wonder?
Were the rose and the thorn in love?
Did he choose to protect her instead?
Were the ocean and the wind in love?
Did they go for duty over love?
