Words Poem by Shruti Goswami

Words: playing hide and seek;
Within us, between us, bold and meek.
Silence, resounding with laughter,
Laughter, in our eyes,
Silly ones, some beautiful,
Some words; sane and wise.
Insane, as it might sound,
Words trailing as we ran,
Kind, naughty and delightfully playful,
So catch me if you can.
Words, dripping, falling, up and picking,
Sulking, angry, what are they seeking?
An answer, in playfulness,
A revelation, in sub consciousness;
Love, in disguise,
Or hatred, otherwise,
Its either virtue or vice.
Why speak, hide and seek?
Its time for us,
To touch its peak.
