India

India - Motherland

an ode to India

a heart in me beats for you,
every heartbeat in praise of you,
India India India,

India -
a sentiment, a flood of emotions;
an experience.
a lovers song, a poets dream;
real.
pain, empathy, a saga of sacrifice;
love.

India -
restless, unclean but childlike;
mind.
an idea, new and everlasting.
thought.
birth, separation, cycle of life;
joy.

India -
anybody's, nobody's and everybody's;
free.
a billion unfinished desires yet peaceful;
faith.
expectation, intention and somewhere in between;
human.

India -
an embodiment of life,
aatma.
eternal flame of knowledge,
the light.
yoga, dhyan and truth;
moment.

India -
flora, fauna, land, sea and air,
infinte.
a name called out to Gods,
ma.
stories, legends and fables;
timeless.

India is -
me,
you,
us.

Look outside you ll find India,
Look within you ll find Indian.
