Loneliness Lesson of Life!
Life meant family and friends group
Selfless love and care flowed truth
Making all cheerful is all my heart knew
Till I was taken out of “My” crew.
Primed such a different appeal
Still somewhere heart finds and feels
But its’ just the own shadow
Again I creep…cry deep….. creep
Holding my hands with assurance
Slowly I relied upon with all faith
Never asked questions to validate
Now it pains deep within….loving hate!
The presence of so many around
Each day, each second trying a way out
Register a gleaming face as years before
Can’t help …heart seeking lively death
Soul is crawling some distances far-off
Days and nights brightened to be dark
Isolation only among the traversed path
Could no longer feel the deepest of love
Sitting numb among a group having fun
Failed even the strongest beam of Sun
To sensitize me to any happiness or pain
Lying alone with my shouting silent mate
Careless whisper knocks the door to initiate
Loneliness knows not to interrogate
As it struck silent that very bright day
When trust failed …..Love line decayed
Do not endeavour to lead me anymore
I am glad as I know not to differentiate
Even feelings have played hide and seek
Dark shadow betrayed ….all in bleak…I creep
No lessons or any instructions to follow
My companion well versed with sorrow
Just a sole wish to meet my “Other Self”
As that will lead to a brighter tomorrow…
Eyes staring isolation –an invisible Chief
Again I creep…sigh deep….. No sleep
My friend! Will not abandon and deceive
Will not gift what I received
A falsely true relationship …..
So many heart beats….yet loneliness speaks!
