Distances
No, i don't want to recall,
but then it naturally comes to my mind;
I want to remember that i hate you,
But how can I forget that I'd once loved you.
Sitting by the sea, I try to hold back the retreating wave,
The wave has drenched me fully and gone;
I feel happy, feel proud of my hold,
But when I open my eyes&hand, it's only sand.
Many a times I've felt my hand moving towards yours,
The forefinger might have just made it;
But NO, something holds me back, my ego:
I close my eyes, swallow a tear, place my fist on my heart, IT PAINS.
I make stonecastles on sandpillars,
Which I know is destined to doom, leaving me in gloom;
Distances once created are difficult to end,
WILL IT EVER END?IF YES, WHEN?
***
and I alone once again;
warming my hands with the coffee mug,
my thoughts rising once again with the vapours.
It's another quiet evening
the sun getting masked by the clouds;
now I don't fear the thunder,
for to comfort me there're no arms around.
It's another rainy night:
I've lost my pole star,
and my thoughts like a battered boat,
tharshed by the waves of solitude.
but tomorrow will be another day,
and this is the hope that drives me;
when I might meet you,my life,
and in discovering you, I'll discover myself.
