Sound Of Nothingness Poem by prabhakar bhatlekar

Sound Of Nothingness



I want to be alone but
I found am caught in a crowd.
How I let this happen?
They all are standing facing
me with smiles and all.
I tried hard to remember when
I wished to be alone.
Who dragged me here?
I stood there watching them.
Slowly the noise dissolved.
Ikeep watching the
soundless crowd for a while
then shouted at them
but no sound came out
from my mouth.
Am I turned deaf?
I tried again shouting.
This time it was shrill
but now there was no crowd there!
Where it vanished?
I was just shouting for nothing.
I tried to remember what
I was sayingby shouting!
After quite some time I sensed
that it was just a sound
made for nothing.
Things happen and they must
have meaning..that's the rule.
Who set the rule?
Yes there's a meaning but
no sound as it's not needed.
