Melting Down.......... Poem by lalitha iyer

Melting Down..........



I am melting
into nothing
as I realise
truths disguised

My name
was sweet
when I learnt it first
as I grew up fast

now as I age
I have paged
thousands of names
meaning nothing only games

my name is lost
in memory's chart
I wonder but for post
what my address hosts.

My figure is fading
my limbs are paining
my control is lost
I am disintegrating

My parts are replaced
my lens, knees all laced
when every organ is transplanted
who am I, with my body implanted

My poetry is somebody'
my feelings I share with many
my ideas are imported from books
my emotions are only silly stuff.

I walk the traces you left
I think again what you spoke
I cook the recipe of yours
I dream nothing but what you saw.

I am melting down to nothing
nothing new is born
nothing is mine I a Popcorn
moment's foam, bubble of seconds.
