I know this fact that

There were fundamental reasons

For us not being together

For the distances that sprung

Things went sour and

I couldn’t protect the tenderness

My strength swayed and I couldn’t

Hold together all the petals of our love

And this is why today

I have so many reasons to cry

And at the next moment

Laugh at the doom of my tears

Pity them….

Which masquerade in the blue shade

Trying to live for a moment but

So transient, they dry on their own

                                                           Look at my plight…

Life didn’t even give me a chance

To taste the teardrops of my sorrow only

Which dry before touching my lips

I wonder o how…

How can love be such an enigma?

The more I try getting it….

The more effervescent the tears become

There will come a time

When they will dry in the eyes only

Those stone eyes, which only will bear the sorrow

Of the fundamentals, which you say went wrong.
