Quotes by Anusha Rao  (?)

“87. Just maybe

These cool Himalayan winds
that burst open
the tender shoots of the deodar
and drink the fragrance of its sap
hurry southwards to me.
I embrace them, my love
for what if
by the tiniest chance
they had touched you?

Cloud Messenger, Kalidasa, 400 CE?”
Anusha Rao, How to Love in Sanskrit

“54. Every time you touch me

It teeters on that edge
between pleasure and pain.
Is it a daze? A dream?
Poison swirling in my veins?
Or is it madness?
Your every touch
blurs my senses
with a numbing cold
and a searing heat
all at once.

What Rama Did Next, Bhavabhuti, 700 CE, Kanyakubja”
Anusha Rao, How to Love in Sanskrit

“74. I’m no hero

They say that Rama,
parted from Sita,
held back the mighty ocean
to build a bridge.
And here I am,
parted from her –
can’t even
hold back
a few tears.

Vidyakara Mishra’s Thousand, 1800 CE”
Anusha Rao, How to Love in Sanskrit
