we are segments of ourselves-
loose ends craving to submerge
into unknown vast nothingness.
every goal attained pushes us further
towards never ending eternal space-
wasteland for some…..
“suddenly these thoughts are scattered
when you tap at my door,
i put my pen down
laughing at my above written words”
Happy New Year Gautami and may all your dreams come true. I know there's a novel waiting to come out.

ReplyDeleteGreat poem, Gautami. The philosopher interrupted in his musings by real life knocking. You do so well without a prompt.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too.
Oh, this is so true! No matter how into our peotry we get, there is always something from the real world that makes us put our pen down. Right now my husband is calling from the cellar. He needs me to help him hold something on the motorcycle he is repairing.
