As Time Goes By! Poem by Mrityunjay Jha

As Time Flies
And
Memory Fades
Into The Background.
At Thirty One
Life Stops
For A While
Reflecting On The Gnawed Pages
Of Past
One Comes To A Halt
That -
Memory Needs Amnesia
I Like Richard Wagner
Because
I Do Not Understand
His Music
But -
''BE THE MUSIC WHILE IT LASTS ''
I Love Chopin's Mazurka
And
Beethoven's Symphony.
There Is No Sense
Except
In Nonsense
The Beauty Of Smoking
Starts And Ends
With The First Act
Placing Cigarette Between The Lips
And
Lighting Its One End
All Else Is
Smoke
I Am Always The Last To Come Home
Through Lonely And Desserted Road
No Human, but, Dogs
Sitting And Brooding
Sideways
Middle
On The Road
Raindrops Falling
On The RoofTop
Serenading Its Joy
The Pain Of Remembering
Is
The Most Painful Act
The Last Time
Those Eyes
That I Had Searched
Had Some Language
To Convey, Probably
That -
O Gad!
I Never Wished
That Was Not
What I Meant At All
At Thirty One -
The World Is Too Much
And,
The Recurring Sounds
Is -
I Am The Loss
.....................
I Am The Lost
.....................
