Loneliness Poem by Angelina Pandian

Loneliness



Looking up I see so many stars
Yet, the sky looks palely lit
Setting dust giving a soft light effect
Making the atmosphere feel unreal
Like some bygone fairytale romance
Palm trees looking like tall grass flowers
Creates a calm, a dream even when awake.
Sitting out on such a night as this
How could I, but, not think of you?
The calm chill of the night air
Cooling my limbs, refreshing me,
Kissing me and caressing me
Makes me ache with longing.
The moon hanging low heavy with love
Burns me with her silvery shafts,
The heavy silence which fills me
Reminds me of the calm
When enfolded in your arms,
The long wistful cry of the Koel
Calling out to her mate
Makes me more aware
- Of my loneliness.
