I have lived a life
Of a deleted poem
A poem that has not
Got a second chance

A poem that -
Instead of revising and editing -
Is just DELETED
A poem of LOVE
That has given up in the fight of LIFE
A poem thrown into the dustbin
Because of the fear of this world
What people would say?
What people would think of us?

Do not be coward, be brave, do not fear

You have the LOVE a love requires from YOU
Do not put shame to the piece of paper,
The poem represents us - our LOVE story
I want you to pick up that sheet of paper
Straighten its creases and
Give LOVE one more chance

Patiently go over the LOVE-drafts
Re-read all those beautifully written LOVE-notes
Fill in the blanks - those empty spaces of LOVE
Re-write those blank sheet
With the blood that flows in you
Complete and present it to
The world as your own LOVE

See what the ovation world gives to
Your poem of LOVE,
That you threw and picked up again
It has became "OUR" story of LOVE

Now we are living a life of a
Celebrated LOVE-poem
That was given a second chance
