AS I SIT HERE WONDERING
ATTEMPTING TO BE OBLIVIOUS OF MY SORROUNDINGS
SUBMERGING MYSELF IN THE COOL LAGOON OF YOUR THOUGHTS
THE DESIRE FOR YOUR PRESENCE
CONSPICUOUSLY PRESENT ON MY FACE
FOR SUCH IS THE MAGIC OF BEING WITH YOU
FOR SUCH IS THE EFFECT OF BEING WITH YOU
AN ANTIDOTE TO THE FATAL STING CALLED SOCIETY
A SOBERING EFFECT TO THE DRUNKENESS OF BEING EMPTY
THE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS OF ENDLESS UNCERTAINITY
AND AS TIME PASSES, AND THE HOLLOWNESS EXPANDS
THE HUNGER AND THE CRAVING CALLED ‘YOU’
COMPEL ME TO LEAVE MY COCOON
LOOKING FOR YOU AMONG ALL SO CROOKED
MY EYES SEARCH, MY HEART SEEKS
WITH ARMS WIDE OPEN, I AWAIT THE MOMENT I’LL EMBRACE YOU
AND THEN I REALISE THAT YOU AREN’T AROUND
A HEAVY HEART, AND SHUT EYES
I DRAG BACK, TO THE WARM CRADLE OF YOUR THOUGHTS

right from the name of your blog to the layout - brilliant!!
...and the content - I have honestly never been a fan of poetry but clearly thats a view that I no longer hold (after reading your blog)... though I haven't read them all... this one particularly caught my eye and I've read it thrice(on different days)to appreciate the beauty that you have created through a mere set of words :)
I envy you and at the same time respect you (more than I did till I read this)
KEEP EM' COMING :)
well thanks Karan..i've got to admit i'm genuinely flattered..!
Glad you read it and appreciated it. cheers!!
...perhaps not the comment you would want,...but id have to say even tho it has a sad ending..its 'sweet'....bittersweet perhaps.
