LOVE HAS YOUR SHAPE

I don't need temples
to worship love
that's already here -
in the shape of you.

I don't need to bow down
before statues of gods,
for my ishta deva stands
right beside me -
in the shape of you.

I don't need ceremonies
to grant me
the proof of the divine,
there's a living, breathing proof
right in front of me -
in the shape of you.

I don't need a prayer to chant -
appreciation and reverence
for this love
surpass the power
of a thousand mantras.
