Why

When we embraced
day after day
night after night
we thought
our love will last .
We thought
our kisses would
sanctify our soul.

Then life was responsibility
Life was duty
life was apathetic bed sheet...

The embrace appeared shameful
kisses appeared venomous,
Love staggered away.

  1. in the words of the cynic - it happens...

    i can taste the spite, tangy, strong and very sharp it almost wounds...

    but life can never be painted in black and white, right amiya ji? starts and ends overlap, the meaning caught in between, trapped where only silence makes sense..

    you out do yourself each time..my adulation raised a notch higher, my love for your words has grown more intense..

  3. I don't even know when love slowly slipped away from my bed... yet kisses are there...embrace is there...all very meaning less.
    a profound write.
