when it rained..... it poured.....

Tonight I can write the saddest of all lines…

You have gone far from me yet I feel so near to you…
You gave me your words and you stole them again…
Long before I had it treasured…
Like me a treasure; you treasured me.
Onto your string for warmth; I clanged
Inadvertently; which you had to abandon…
A trail lay before me: so I tip-toed…

But the limping steps:

How long do you expect it to stay on foot?

How far can you see it limping: how so far?

The lonely half footprint of the limp; reckon it!
You chance to leave my world so cold… Is it fate?
Naïve in the hands of nobody: know not whom to plead…
I gulp the truth deep down; you were helpless intact…
Holding my hand for so long: how could you just let it go?
Am I treading on the flipside of happiness?

You didn’t go far to cease my living; I know

But life had come to a halt long before I ebb inside me…

It was evident in your eyes: through my eyes…

Did you not read your own drop of tears???

You were far than late, when the stream flowed…

Don’t ask me why? Coz you know…

“Smooth flow the stream when the brook is deep”…

Tears are not shed anymore: I solidified them…

A rush though all these years; it was still set…
Even diamonds can be melted; what was mine before it???
Unwillingly at my stake; I crossed the long forgotten border…

You cared to guide me back to your fort…

And left me to wander in the wind …
It was not tears that ebb and flow…

It was you who have streamed back to the sea…

Unfathomable is the law of yours…

I draught for a thirst that can never be quenched

But you satiated my thirst that I didn’t famine for…

There are boundless whys for you to answer…

Will you give a moment thought to it???????????

I still live in the uncertainty of you…

Just give me a chase…

Let the candle wicker in the wind…

Let the flame blaze in the storm…

Let the storm die out the currents in your sea…

Once the torrent has cave in…

You will find me waiting; at the threshold of your sea…
