All my life I have had loved ones walking into the
night. Some said they might not come back; some said “we shall meet again when
it is time”, and then I had some who said they will be back.
All my life I have lit candles in dark dreary nights
and slept with hurricane lamps when there was storm. In the darkest hours of
winter, I have burnt sleep to fuel memories of those who are gone.
I now dread open doors. They confuse me all the
more. Of the handful few who squeezed in and stayed behind; I am very worried
who might walk out and be gone!
...or who might be inside waiting for you to come in.

ReplyDeleteWhy worry about unseen 'tomorrows' and let the blessings of 'today'go unnoticed?
Rajesh,
ReplyDeleteYou've got all the elements of good poetry in these few lines. Very, very well done. Many thanks for doing it.
