Reunion Poem by Pradip Chattopadhyay

Reunion



In the stillness of the night,
The lake was drinking the moon.
Though shattered, he was not crying,
His eyes just glistened with a mist.
She was his world and bereft her,
It meant nothing to live.
Slowly he got up,
And with a sweep of charcoal,
Wrote in bold on the shabby hoarding,
‘I MISS YOU'.
Then he went into the water.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
For the last many days, as I pass by the lakeside, I see a scribble on an abandoned hoarding that says I MISS YOU. Sometime back, I hear, a girl drowned in that lake.
