Captured In a Selfie

You wanted me not to bother you too much.
 Life will pass by at its speed, eventually
 But, I saw life stuck somewhere
 I tried to forget and forgive and carry on
 My lingering journey with lines of poems
 And, I saw, life stuck somewhere
 As, I  bled through my emotions, 
 Helpless and unwanted
 Or,
 Puzzled and confused.
 Both led to a journey somewhere, in the end.
 
 I saw you, helpless and unmotivated too
 You were there, yet you were not there anymore
 Not with your spiritual soul, mindfully.
 Busy with an almost conscious moment
 Captured in a selfie, not sure why.
 
 And I kissed the darkness goodbye for the time being
 For, I needed to make you free before the canvas of the eastern sky.
