Poem Title:
Poem
"I love you" These are the three ripe words that I wanted to whisper in your ears. So, I Fixed a date You came We met We spoke But I couldn't propose: Though tattooed on the tip of my tongue, at my dismay it refrained to flow out. Then, I packed all my feelings and emotions in a box with a love letter clinched to it and laid it on your desk. Looking at the hourglass Counted the time. Zealously anticipating for your arrival But, Unfortunately you were on sick leave. Poor me Carried the box ran and hopped into a taxi. Impatiently sitting, throughout the ride yearning to meet you.. After reaching the destination Carelessly forgetting the box, restlessly I jumped down Rushed to your flat Found your name plate beside the door Pressed on the calling bell Faced your maid With a fine clarification I stepped inside the hall Not finding you Confused I stood. In a while, Got to know that you have been shifted to hospital; Not knowing the address and the exact location I stumbled Place to place.. In search of you With a wrong information. Cash had melted; Looking my wallet I sat on the street gaping at your photo, that..I had stolen from your locker. Hit suddenly an idea.. Thought of calling you But, In a hurry had left my mobile on my table; Recalling your number I went to a telephone Booth I tried and tried and tried.. With many failed attempts I just heard the recorded voice which repeatedly said: "your call is not reachable" My eye lids were twitching prophesying something awful is to happen. The clouds were shadowed by darkness; And I returned back home with a huge sigh; Found my pillow Embraced , Cried my heart out, Lay insomniac, whole night Thinking Of YOU I stay awake Worrying, What might have happened to you..! The next day morning, I found newspaper Headlines said: "Airplane crashed due to turbulence" Strange was to know.. Your name typed too.. under the missing passenger list. Why such a shocking news ?! Why the hell did he board the flight all in sudden with no clue? Myself wriggled On the floor.. Soul paralyzed "Losing him" ~The Untold love~ The one who capriciously got away from me in a very short span of time. 3-7-2020 Second place in the contest. Note:The one that got away poetry Contest.
