Differences
We met on the night of solstice
When the night was bright all through
On the plane high on the horizon
It was love at first sight
I must confess
**********
With little or no much ado
We fell in love
Blinded by our desires to be immortal in love
We shunned reality
**********
Love covers all
Love heals all
Was our slogan during those periods
We were envied by foes
Loved by friends
A day without the other
Is like eternity in hell
**********
Our parents looked at us anguishly
What will become of them, they said
Nights rolls into months
And days into years
We should tie the knot we concluded
**********
But our parents wouldn't oblidge
He is from the other side they said
Those who believe in a virgin born
You are from the last prophet of God
Religion of peace
We can't allow you together, they said
**********
Water and oil can't miss
Find your type and we will consider
I was heartbroken and despair
We have been stabbed by our differences
Brought back to reality by beliefs
**********
Why has fate decided to rob us of true love?
Why does love have to be about religion?
Can't love covers it all?
Can't our differences be multiplied?
**********
Religion is not to be blamed for failed love
Humans are!
Beliefs are not meant to hold for eternity
Culture is!
Love fails when we stop believing in it
I believe in you and I
Despite our differences!

**********
Love covers all
Love heals all
Was our slogan during those periods
We were envied by foes
Loved by friends
A day without the other
Is like eternity in hell
