Unbearable Beauty In Blue

To avoid the pale blue pain hue I do not visit the river shore any more If I do sometimes by chance One by one Our spent moments Both closed and open Come in a long bluish queue And in the snow of thought grow deep blue sores Hospital odour shreds of blue in the air Prayers seem hollow Blues inexorably follow The river-shore blue beauty Is elegiac and unbearable for me Do you remember The blue river shore Would madden us more and more The blue air from your hair That we ecstatically shared While dissolving our lips in the mutual cups In the veins In the blue lanes and bye lanes of our laugh Would gallop the horses Now they are dews on forceps Of the frightening time In tattered rhymes All chimes robbed of As one day all on a sudden you fell The current went pell-mell in the river Leaving me sobbing In those blue myriad cells Very pale by your sudden departure Into the ethereal air Never to return Time sits in urn When I come here The moment broken seemed irreparable The embracing blue unbearable ____________________________________ 2/11/2016

Such a deeply sad feeling flows through this poem, like a favorite song you hear and wish you didn't to stand at that shared place and think back, is often sad. Blue fits this nicely

When I think of sadness, I do see the color blue and feel it, Probir. Well written but very sad.
