Words were not enough

October 19th, 2007 | by Vijayaraghav |



 

 

Words were not enough    

 

 

Where the love has gone

She yelled at me

hobnobbing with my fingers    

 

 

It was one of those November evening

The sky was bright

A cold breeze passed through

the seashore

and chilled my nerves    

 

 

My thoughts went back to earlier times    

 

 

The time was rolling through

the tunnels of life    

There was brightness 

darkness

happiness

and sorrow     

 

I saw the flame of love

burning in me

on those days    

 

 

How can I tell her?

 

 

The time has changed me

to some other mould

neither good nor bad

but a soul  who like to share

the passion     

 

What more?

 

She put me in dilemma

by asking a question

in such a time

when it cannot be answered      

 

 

I squabbled with my conscience

and searched for words

to give an assurance

but words were not enough    

 

 

Time stand still in that vast night

under the infinite sky

when I failed to give her

a definite answer.
