Source Poem by Aparna Chatterjee

Source



As of now,
You are the
Source of my
Tears

If it wasn't you,
Someone else
Would have been
The source of my
Tears

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
(based on the observation that people keep grieving over the loss of some kind of relationship - be it with their friend, lover, mother, father, brother, sister, son, daughter, partner, etc - losing them to other people, circumstances or death and diseases like Dementia and Alzheimer's - what we don't realise is that the source / cause is not the person but our attachment to that person - the many good and bad memories they leave with us when they depart from our lives)

Very true said Aparna. Source of tear is just because of attachment to a person. For Tears to fall, one or the other source is the reason. I loved you write. With few words you portray it very well.
