Brief Encounter

One fine day,
Leaving for work,I opened my door
Twenty-one things clouding my thoughts
Listless,my eyes land on you
Wide-eyed i stop,the clock didnt tick for me
In that halted moment I heard my heart pound as we gazed on..
My keys slipped and the world was noisy again!

I began to sense a change in the apparent unchangeables,
We kept meeting,growing fond of our company.
I realised you were seeping deep into my life without me noticing all this while!
And then i feared; the fear of loosing you!
As I knew you were not meant to be forever
But still i clung onto you as a foolish dreamer!

With it my days passed
Alas! You left and the painful tears gushed
It sunk my heart,I was living my fear!
I didn't notice even the remarkables around,
Dull it all seemed,devoid of feelings I was running from me!

Yet another morning,
Time to go to work, a withered me locking the door, the keys fell again,

And opened an old school of thoughts,

Which me myself was oblivious of,
Lying somewhere within me.

I see it clear,
The layers of confusion and pangs disappeared somehow!
A beaming me, I walk alive now!
