The shades are down
As the night unfolds
In these waves of darkness
A hundred stories untold
Beyond the flowing brook
I see a silhouette dance
Why should I look-when it can’t be you?
And yet I steal a glance
Far from my view, the moon shines bright
And yet deep down there ain't any light
Within me so much gloom
Eyes searching for my shiny armored knight
In the deepest and darkest time
You have always been mine
Then why today?
You choose to leave me,
And let the loneliness shine
You dint teach me to be alone
And now I stand here on my own
Waiting in the ever pouring rain
Wanting to wash away my pain
The long wait when finally paid
You came through that door, I let out a sigh
Touched my face and gave that smile
And turned around…for the final good-bye?
My eyes still on that door
With that touch, my life started to soar
Your image I shall never forget
I lived my life in that very moment!!!
after ages read something by you. I was missing your poems since so many months. nice expession as usual, touching to heart
ReplyDeletevery sad thoughts last parts brought tears in my eyes. and i feel more depressed .just want you to know that i understand your feelings
Lovely poem, deeply emotional and poignant.
ReplyDeleteyour poem, the expressions and the pain depicted in it is haunting me even after 8 hours of reading it.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to stop on in quick and say thanks for stopping by my blog, and the kind words.
ReplyDeleteI see you're into acting. I'm an actor in local professional theatre here in Rochester, home of such actors as Philip Seymour Hoffman, Taye Diggs, and many others. I also do public relations for a local professional theatre.

Love it. Rarely ever do I like poems and read them 2 the end but this is an exception!
ReplyDeleteWriting poetry is so difficult ( I have tried and failed miserably).You made it seem very easy. Very poignant lines. Keep writing.
ReplyDelete@gayathri thanks so much
ReplyDelete@aditya i read the story u've written on ur blog..i m so moved
Fab work. Very nice, very serene poetry.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes wonder how some people are blessed to be able to write such wonderful poetry and how, at the other end of the spectrum, are people like me for whom reciting 'Mary had a little lamb' can be such a challenge.
@parikshith haha...thats so sweet...
ReplyDeletesometimes when u r overwhelmed with emotions...each one has a way of expressing.. sometimes...i just weave that into words :)
A work of art, indeed. Emotional.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog.
