Wringing Out A Tone... Poem by Kesav Venkat Easwaran

Wringing Out A Tone...



Waiting I was this far,
Waiting for your call,
Waiting to hear you in my heart,
Waiting to be heard that bad;

The ringtone breaks the silence at last
You tell me you were busy fast;
You tell me you would again call
And hang up my dreams that have rung so far...

Busy? No; I know you are
Pretending busy, to dismiss me fast;
Busy not, to respond to the readiness
That rings so loud inside my heart...

Let me remain, let come your call;
But amidst memories raining hard,
Let me wring out the scorching pain
That soaks up heavy inside my heart...

Very realistic poem. I feel as if it is something that I can relate too. After reading 'Caught! ' I see why you asked me to read this haha. Nice write once again.

good one! Also, the little things in a relationship that brings tears to our eyes are etched in our memories to cherish them later with a smile on our face.

I like how yo poem goes through like a story or video to a love song and i could see a clear picture... i liked the sensitivity, and how u explain the pain of someone waiting patiently for a call
