Have Nothing But

Ranesh Ray 


Have nothing to offer you dear,

But only a heart full of sunlight

If it can warm you, my peer.


I have nothing that I can give you dear

Have only a heart full of love

If that can swing your heart in joy, you share.


What else can I share with you dear 

But an intense pain that oozes 

If you can accept, you bear.


I have nothing that can garland you dear 

But have a heart full of free air

That can ensure you breathe, oh! my peer.


I have nothing to offer you dear

Still I have an intense feeling

That can make you cry in tear.


I have nothing to give you dear

But have  deep credence of mountain

To ride up together.


Have nothing to give you dear

But have a floating dark piece of cloud

That can pour rain  to meet your thirst, my peer.


If I am empty, do not get undone don't cry my dear

But have a gem of life beneath the ocean 

Let us sink down deep to collect without fear.
