The Nature Of Love
Proximity promotes love
But not necessarily.
Proximity withdrawn, love
That exists will dilute to nil.

Proximity promotes adultery
But not necessarily.
Opportunities encourage adultery
But not necessarily.
Necessities warrant adultery
But not necessarily.
Baits contribute to adultery
But not necessarily.
Adultery is no more than a theft
Which will happen with one’s wills.

The Growth of Love
Proximity can kindle love
But not necessarily.
Distance will put an end to it
And most probably.

Chastity in seclusion
Proximity is a deadly enemy
To unwanted intimacy.
Proximity alone is incapable
Of bringing intimacy
Unless women find in men
Some appreciative traits
That appeal to them irresistibly.
Chastity thrives in seclusion.

Love in many phases
Love at first sight: many vouch for it.
Love at long sight: It exists between fans
and stardoms.
Love at short sight: Proximity brings about it.
Love at dim sight: It thrives in profession.
Love at random sight: It revamps in absentia.
Love at blind sight: It is the Oedipus complex.
Love at wrong sight: Incest relation.
Each has its own span of life with momentary pleasure.

Your proximity means a lot to me
Your proximity means a lot to me
Yes, it means a lot to me to be with you
And to be intimately close to you
Not just a physical togetherness
But with a soulful oneness with you
You have been the drive of my life so far
But here and there I missed you
As I chose to act differently from your direction
You never let me down any time
You kept your watch on me
Not uttering a word
Though you maintain a silence I know
What you expect me to do
That will please you
Your directions are not always worldly wise
Your directions are not always fetching
Your directions are not always rewarding
Your directions are often different from acquired wisdom
Your directions are not taught in any school
We understand them from the experience of not life, but of living
Still your proximity means a lot to me
It leaves behind a great satisfaction
After being with you and after having acted upon your direction
When I look back
I understand that
Actions performed as per your directions
Never made me regret them
Though at the time of acting
I needed lot strength than what I require
When I am acting on the path of acquired wisdom
Your proximity means a lot to me
Oh my love, that is hidden deeply in my heart
And you are different from
The wisdom planted in the mind
And gathered in life

The Disillusioned Love
Love thrives in proximity
And fades out in intimacy.
The disillusioned successful love
Will give you no higher valuation
Than the one the pending love would.

Danger of the proximity
He saw and fell in love with her.
She saw and fell in love with him.
It is not the love at first sight either.
It is in mutual contacts in a given time.
They have crossed half their sex age.
Many have courted them in early stage.
Nevertheless, both engrossed in love
As though it was a maiden love,
As though each was unexplored.
Immediate flame shades the distant one.
Proximity does all the havoc.

Love is Slippery
Love thrives in proximity
And dies from intimacy.
You will lose it on under - use.
You will leave it on overuse.

Love is irremovable.
Dear Nita, I love you hand in glove,
I am, for you, head over heals in love.
No one must have fallen, with you, in love,
No one but me, you must love, I resolve.
Farness eludes our proximity.
Family bond prevents our unity.
You are too shy to take chance, if any.
The mirage of love is my vanity.
How someone-else can or may love you, given
That I alone can or must love you any more?
None else do I love; none else should you, driven
By this fallacy, I run after you.
Your features were not the cause of my love.
You were not alone under the roof to choose from.
Yet I love you; it’s irrevocable, irreversible.
The inaccessibility of you did it all.
In my love for you, there’s no otherness.
I disbelieve any such otherness
‘Cause love refuses to admit otherness.
So, my love can head towards emptiness.

Mate selection is elsewhere
.
Proximity is the venue
Where the sexual love might spark.
It is not a guarantee that
Any mate selection is made there.

Love is the moon.
Proximity and frequency
Will promote one’s acceptance
And demote one’s importance.
Love is the moon, waxing and waning.

1,000 Ways Of Your Love
Motives,
Reserved,
A long-held judgement!
But in proximity with each other;
And like 1,000 ways of your love.
The all-important first kisses of love!
Considering your acts and the ways of your life;
And like 1,000 ways of your love,
But try to take a big adventure with the moon.

Natural selections
Where there prevail
Proximity and absence of suspicion
In relation between the two
There strikes adultery.
Others dear by love and passion
Are only withered flowers

Women can’t be caged.
The reason why woman sleeps with men are:
Love, fear, gain curiosity, ambition,
Passion, intimacy, proximity
And discontentment. Women can’t be caged.

Love Without Sex
A woman of thirty five
And a mother of two kids,
With modesty to the core,
She was lured to fall for him
When they were given proximity
For a couple of years.
Even now the love is vibrant
After thirteen years,
Notwithstanding any
Physical intimacy
It has culminated in.
Sexual love can exist without sex.

A Woman Forty Plus Aspires
I must be the centre of attention
And reaffirm my desirability.
I must feel validated as a woman
And re-experience the romance of love.
Let be burnt the ennui of monogamy.
Let come again the sexual excitement
That I went through at my first night.
Need not the man in focus be a prince,
An emperor nor a millionaire.
Let him be the one I want to be with,
In accordance with my safety,
Proximity and convenience.
Just for a ‘love you leave you alliance.’
Yes, I must waste no time to test my worth
And remain faithful with my husband.
