SHIVA, GOD OF DESTRUCTION

You kept on yearning for recognition
while knowledge closed my door
And in that self-contraction
you increased my fear more and more

But then The Lover spoke:
Shiva unites bride and groom
in a house without walls,
hence for fear there's no room

To leave Shiva standing outside
is the only mortal sin
One can merely speak of LOVE
when death comes marching in
