Blank Verse
I wonder if you've ever thought if it was the hypocrisy of
the litmus paper or the brute strength of the worker; that we see different
colours on the paper with acid and with base and we think gold to be malleable.
I wonder if you ever pondered if people change or if it was your mistake or
your delusion that you stand here stranded.
Every tide rises and falls but are our expectations meant to
experience the same crests and troughs? Why did you think he meant it all? Why
do you think she’ll come back? Why do we crash and burn to realize that we are
but a small dot in the cosmic order of universe and our existence shall mean
nothing and yet we nurture the desire of a thousand burning suns to be
remembered?
Write me an elegy?
Every day we die a little; optimists would argue that before
that death, we bloom into life. Every day. Call me what you want to but every
day I realize that people are a killjoy, social media is an exaggeration, life
is a never-ending Ekta Kapoor serial except it stretches longer than 10 years
if you’re lucky (or unlucky maybe?), and no matter how much you do to create
value for your life, yourself or just the days you live and as they go by you
shall realize that all this grandeur is doomed to turn into just a speck of
dust one day.
Can you watch the past go up in smoke now?
Do you think it’s time that you introspect, then. Your decisions,
their consequences. Perhaps this is your life’s ode to the winds of change and
this is the time you could cut reason some slack. She loved him. He didn't say
it. So she had to walk away. It hurt. But was there another way?
“Maybe it
was because I was never verbose or my ego came in the way.
Maybe it was
ignorance or just sheer selfishness on your part but maybe it was time to stop chasing
you since you loved the running away.”
Stoneheart!
