Distance-Poetry by Vasu.A

Sometimes when you feel all alone, there seems no one who can share your sorrow and sometimes you don't want to open up. Life is hard, but it becomes harder when there seems no way to get out of the loop. It's like you have been stuck in that very same loophole from a very long period of time just like the- "Westworld" series by HBO. This poetry is a mix of every feeling I am feeling these days and what I used to feel in the pretty past. Don't know what the future beholds but sometimes you have to live until the end of time.

From long chats

To wishing only on Occasions’

There created a distance.

A distance that can’t be covered

A road where she was alone

She can’t utter,

Can’t mutter a single word

And foolish me, without even thinking

I even asked- ‘ Does it hurt’?

Boldly she said not at all

There was a sublime smile on her face

But was missing that sheer joy

I noticed the very first day.

I remember the past it was hot and chill

Unlike the present, living just to earn and pay the bills.

Sometimes I miss myself, sometimes I miss her too

But too busy to care for

What I know and what should I do.

I remember the past, it was like magical stars,

Unlike the present, everyone’s cold and everything’s dark.

I think I came too far in search in Home

I see no one besides myself and an empty soul

In the race of pacing up,

I think I lost my own.

When fighting the society rules,

I got beat up and never felt alive

I never felt truly happy

Never remember how it was to rejoice and

Gulp it like the last piece of a pie.

I feel thirsty, and my soul feels dead

The urge to rejuvenate in stress

Is what all I can sense,

All I can grasp,

Everything I could ever clasp.
