The Love Beyond All Reasons

By Arushi Manchanda

As they said, you're startled for the suit-less reasons,

I smiled and uttered,

he has been limning the worst of me in all the seasons...

You lay claim for better better, they invigorate,

and he just smiles and have me rejuvenate.

I just had to aim, they did intend

But he's my world, contrary to which I cannot pretend.

There are reasons to love you, they persisted

He had none, yet he never resisted.

You're admirably glorious, they were continual,

How do I explain, it was his eyes, that didn’t come with a manual!!

It was just a matter of stare,

All my vulnerabilities lay bare.

Without his shadows, you looked the most elegant,

But with the embellishment of some scars, beautifies me more, I have been adamant.
