Evershine Love, A poem by Monalisa Parida

EVERSHINE LOVE!

A poem by Monalisa Parida 

 

I didn’t know

There were supposed to be

Stars in my eyes.

 

I thought they were all

Reckoned to stay

In the firmament.

 

I had no idea

There was conjectured to be

A cluster of stars shining inside of me.

 

I asked the stars

Will this get easier

They said

The sun always rises again.

 

And only the Moon knows

How often I repeated your name

While you’re away.

 

I will never tire

Of the love you give.

Because

It’s pure,

Beautiful,

And ever shines.
