TO SOME EXTENT - -

if not extremely close, never mind !
however something is still 
remained among us,
certain traces,
few have
disappeared, some left indelible - - 
marks, some are shrouded
in the mist of emotion, 
indeed, it's not 
so easy in 
life - - 
permanent riddance, some affinity -
makes the burrow beneath
the conscience, tho'
unseen but 
remains
with 
self-absorbed, that's your love or -
something else, I do not know, 
but heart says, the pain
is unfinished yet,
maybe 
the wound is healed to some extent,

PERHAPS, SOME ANOTHER DAY - -

flakes of feeling is laid on the  
edge, groan of night, 
nobody knows,
after a 
painful journey it reached to  
destination, but whom 
searched persona 
entire life,
that 
person wasn't present there !
that's happened often 
in life, the hills of
remote look 
blue,
from the proximity all truth -  
reveal with harsh reality,
nevertheless, life
doesn't leave
dreaming,
with 
hope for some unexpected -
miracle - -
