The Silent Throb Of Love (Sonnet) Poem by Dipankar Sadhukhan

Upon the stream of dreams and beauty wide,
I sought for life where love did light the way.
Her hand in mine, my soul with hers allied,
We made our path where hopes and passions lay.

But lo! A roar did cleave the peaceful air,
A beast did rise from 'neath the water's face.
My blood ran cold with horror and despair—
Its gaze did halt all time in that dread place.

It stole my heart with jaws both fierce and fell,
Then plunged beneath the waves with cruel delight.
My eyes, though wide, had naught they dared to tell,
Save silence weeping through the depthless night.

Though Love be lost beneath the river's cry,
Our tale shall breathe though stars fall from the sky.
