I often sit still looking at the bridge,
Boats painted in the colour of purple stooped sky
May be sailing towards your wildest dreams
From my sweaty nightmares.
It has been one and a half years -
We chose to move in different ways.
Though with every dawn break
Overflowed by our extinct emotional caress,
I sense of moving backward to your adulterous arms.
Yes, it is long one and a half years
Since I haven’t seen your face,
But I can surely assume even now,
False promises and lies still reside in your eyes.
And a crumpled heart of mine
Laying somewhere alone in a dark store room of yours.
You used to say, “Life is like a river.”
If it is true, then I am certain by now,
There is an unbreakable one sided bridge of thoughts
That never stops connecting me with you.
False promises and lies are very common with the muse of mankind on earth; but do move on with your mind. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful bridge! It lies in heart like rainbow lies in hills.
The words and phrases are carefully selected to express the love and emotions of heart that was once in terminated love, the yearning and longing of the love once exchanged unfulfilled promises and crashed expectations are brought together to reveal the current state of affairs, Nice and lovely poem.
The poem tells us of a lovely dream turned into a nightmare, a beautiful life turned into a source of continuous torture. But there is still glint of hope somewhere under the ashes of shattered emotions: I sense of moving backward to your adulterous arms / Yes, it is long one and a half years
A great emotive write having fantastic expression and attractive collocation. Most emotional lines I like most are.....You used to say, “Life is like a river.” If it is true, then I am certain by now, There is an unbreakable one sided bridge of thoughts That never stops connecting me with you. Beautiful poem. Thank you dear Sanjukta for posting such an amusing poem. ......10
