A Mathematical Rhapsody

A Mathematical Rhapsody

A Poem by Raj Sahu
"

This poem shows the sentiments of a mathematician towards his lover in mathematical form.

"


I doubt; Can I live long rather?
As we both are parallel lines, which do not meet each other.

To understand you is a task very hard;
Before that, the problems of Mensuration I will regard.

Expressions of your face frequently deviates,
That the comprehension of sine and cosine alleviates.

Our only meeting of love made me disappoint.
It was like a tangent that meets a circle only at one point.

I promised you there that all your expenses I will afford.
As I am the diameter of my family circle, which is the longest chord.

My love towards you will truly suit.
It is a quadratic equation of real root.

In your friend circle, I was too your friend.
But I was like an Arithmetic Progression's term of the end.

Your deception make me full of sorrow,
My life becomes as a cylinder hollow.

In your love, I myself dangle.
I act as an unknown value of an angle.

In your life, I am one of the obstruction.
It seems to me that I am an endless construction.

“In your love, I myself dangle.

In your life, I am one of the obstruction.
It seems to me that I am an endless construction."

I should really applaud this work of you for both of its parameters- unique and humorous. I am really startled how one can knit a poem, a poem of love, through the central theme- Mathematics. It is really an amazing work. Somewhere I find rhymes a little odd, but it's effect outshone by this amazing love comedy. Thank you for sharing.

At first read I assumed that English isn't your first language. But now I'm not so sure any more. so I found Mathematical Rhapsody as you said "a little weird."
However as I read it sort of grew on me and your comparisons gave me a good chuckle.

Thank you so much! You are correct that English isn't my first language but Hindi.
What I like about this is the witty uses of mathematical terminology as you describe a certain love. And above all, it flows. Nicely done! Much enjoyed!

my pleasure.
A clever write using mathematical terminology in a relationship. That's ok if you understand maths. I was never any good at it. The creative part of my brain is the bit that works.

Thank you.
You were my complement set,
Our union was the completeness!
But you made me forget that
our intersection was a null set!

Just a try ;-)

Good work bro. Keep it up!
