The afterlife of undying lovers
The crossing of the two stars
remained in the river of OM
the river of tears
Layla and Majnun
- Who am I? he cried
but a mortal. . . How can a mortal
experience immortal love?
Tears of sorrow and joy
fell into the river of tears
healing power
of darkness and light
and in her eyes
the flame of their love
secretly remained
the answer to his call
If he could just see her smile
The smile of death,
he would become immortal
As a madman driven by his sorrow
he drowned in the river
and she became the burning star
The fire of the undying love
he slowly sank into the river
and from the bottom of the river
he saw a glimpse of her smile
and smiled back
- I love you, he whispered
and took his last breath
she heard his whisper
dived in the river OM
and embraced him . . .
Two burning stars into the
river of immortality;
beyond the shadows of the past
they now live together. . .
Layla and Majnun
