Probir Gupta Poet Free verse

The Fault Line

You are my purple dream
I am your yellow window
In between yet a fault line
Taking toll yours and mine
Both indeed feel sorry

I am the enigmatic dusk
You are my emerging dawn
In between still a night
Taking toll from both me and you
Both suffer from dearth of dew

I am your Darjeeling tea
You are my cut glass bowl
In between yet a fault line
Taking toll from our river
Our feasible flowers get fewer

We walk and share our sparrows
Green grass smiles in the meadow
There too falls the night-like shadow
We do want to shoo it away too
But the fault line is a difficult fence

The malt-robber fault line
Disappointment dwelling in the spine
