Pendulum Poem by K B Manchanda

I long to hold

your beautiful hand

in mine

I long to be with you

I wish togetherness

to see the glow

on your face

I yearn to embrace

Will it?

Will it ever?

Will it be forever?



Reach out to you

was not an easy way though

for no one was to lead me

No one was to guide me

I found

No way out

No ray of hope

Still I dream of you though

the restrictions imposed

but the thoughts of mine

still no one can confine

in small enclosure

I wish I were there with you

Will it?



Will it ever?

Will it be forever?



O pretty angel

I long to see you

I long to hold you

But I find myself

in lurking apprehension

like a pendulum

restlessly swaying

left and right.

to keep apace with time

which was always

adverse for mine

Good times aspired

always through

noble notions

Will it come

Will it?



Will it ever?

Will it be forever?



Pendulum

Left perhaps loves me not

Right perhaps loves me

Dilemma



Left:

I am left alone

Right:

Was I worth loneliness?

Left:

No one by my side

Left:

Why? is my question

Right:

My feelings were true

Left:

Am still surprised

Right:

Sentiments are for fools

Matter of Left and right

are governed by a Why



Let me embrace

Not physical you

Come O Sun

Please come

In chariot of you

drawn by seven steed

every wheel

represent time

Will you ever be mine

Will it?

Will it ever?

Will it be forever?



And I long to hold your beautiful hand

in mine

I don't want to lose you



Ever

Forever

or still your answer is 'Never'
