Arjun wouldn't have held his Gandiva again
Had You not sang Your
Eternal song.
Draupadi would have crumbled to dust
Had you not told her
She was so much more than that.
Yudhisthir would have died of guilt
Had you not told him
That it was only human to err.
And Uddhava? He too needed
The second phase of your
Song.
Nobody, ever asked you, Krishna
If you were doing okay
Separated for so many years from your biological parents
Separated from your beloved
Separated from your foster parents
Separated from your first home.
Which is why
I have forever kept my arms open
For you to come cry,
Krishna.
For even Gods
Have hearts.
Immortal ones, certainly,
But hearts after all.
