The pain you give me inundates my heart
Like a tsunami ruins a country,
Creating upheaval in the crux of my soul
Like a tornado wrecks a shelter.
From 2009 to 2011, just in these two years
Things have changed devastatingly
Such that I can’t believe my eyes
When I see you transforming!
Your repeated avoidance shocks me
I keep thinking is that you only?
Who used to talk to me 18 hours a day?
Now you don’t even receive my phone call!
Time changes drastically, isn’t it?
Probably you are sick and tired of me,
Me who still love you more than anyone else;
Who still can’t see a single tear drop in your eyes!
You snatch away every bit of my happiness
Yet I am always trying to make you happy,
Strange is this world, stranger the people,
I am dumbfounded whenever I think about it.
I slither myself in a nut shell,
Detached from the whole world,
Trying to escape the twisters of the present,
Trying to shield me from the whips of reality.
I wonder will I ever get back that ‘you’
Who cared for me more than anybody else,
Who shared everything always with me,
And washed away all my sorrows and pain?
Yes, at times the world appears strange, at times we reach a dead end of the road with four options: stop, take left or right turn or turn back. I advise, my young soul, take the right turn!
