A peep into a couple’s estranged relationship complicated with the ensuing storm within, when they come face to face after their breakup. Going through a gamut of internal expressions with apparent amazing ease, they put a facade, portraying an artificial calmness in their stance.
Of all people, I want YOU to open my poem
Despite the crowd, Its for U I’ll look out.
Suspending the animated tension of the moments..
U will diffuse into a laughter.
I will look on, stupefied.
Glib, the silence between us.
You arrive,
full on color.
Out in the world,
you head straight for
heated debates and controversies
with the glint of battle in your eye.
You won’t suffer fools gladly
and you are reckless as you travel around.
More than usual,
you feel dramatic, colourful, flamboyant,
making great efforts to ensure
you have an appreciative audience
for your witty flow of jokes.
Though in private moments
you may have trouble
coming to a deeper self knowledge
about yourself.
But is it absolutely crucial that you do?
And you are ready, aren’t you?
You’re not going to be prepared for the depth of the feelings that will wash over you –
Falling into the sea of uncertainty
You try to put the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle together.
Emotions on Alert ~ You are still biased or prejudiced
without even knowing it.
Lest you worry that’s a bad thing,
you keep in mind
that intensity is absolutely necessary to commitment.
I traverse the undulating swells of time
Like worn-out driftwood
Beaten from the effects of abrasions
Still to reach the distant shores
And through the gorges & ravines as I pass
A solitary traveller I am that moves slow
Softly gaining volume on surface yet light in mass
Gathering the green moss on brown me I flow
The pain will remain
painfully same..
Coming from me or you..
then how can it be new!
The version can be different
The expression may vary
The whiff may be subtle or poignant
But ultimately old wine in bottle new!
Yes .. Pain & Happiness..
both filter out to simple things finally..
howsoever complicated a light
we might see them in.
It could be a hybrid species
but a man has to be a man
& a woman a woman
whatever leaf of life out you drew.
Life is a full circle
Let me fly beyond the tangent
lest it might go askew.
Even though, I wouldn’t want, I wish U adieu.
