Love After Love


Posted on 7th Nov 2020 04:38 pm by rohit kumar

The time will come

when, with elation,

you will greet yourself arriving

at your door, in your mirror,

and each will smile at the other's welcome,

 

And say, sit here. Eat.

You will love again the stranger who was your self.

Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart

to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

 

all your life, whom you ignored

for another, who knows you by heart.

Takedown the love letters from the bookshelf,

 

the photographs, the desperate notes,

peel your image from the mirror.

Sit. Feast on your life.
