Okram Shakuntala
Manipur ( India)
Open the Door
Open the door
Of thy heart
I will behold
How beautifully
Thou hath decorated
Thy heart
For me
Perhaps
Methinks
Thou hath taken
Births after births
To prepare
To accumulate
The elements of emotions
The lights of love
The sweetest of feelings
To decorate
Thy heart
Only for me
Now
I raise a question
How could thou know?
What I want
To be in thy heart
Again
I thank thee
My sweetheart
For decorating
Thy heart for me
For ever and ever
