Who Knocked? Poem by Anoop Joseph

Who Knocked?



While counting my mounting sorrows
Someone knocked on my mind's door
Is it my charming lover melancholy?
Is it my probing friend named hope?

I would love to invite melancholy
And be lost in her soothing embrace
Yet I would like a glimpse of hope
Whom I haven’t seen in years

Like wisdom waiting in front of
The sacrificial chamber of beauty
I stood there without knowing
Who is more welcome
