I've thought about the ways we would sever
But this, for one, is none of them.
As we stand near that same old church gate
Facing each other....with some distance
There are no flashbacks....no thoughts
We don't speak a word and remain motionless
Staring each other........
And in this inertness of the moment,
We hear the sounds that remained unnoticed
Until now.........
Like the sound of gust of wind...making
some mesmerizing animations with her hair
The sound of chirping of birds and stirring of twigs
The sound of ringing of bells and falling of leaves
And then there are the sounds......
Of separation, misery, destruction, dissolution,
The moaning and groaning of our battered hearts
But the loudest of them all....is the sound of silence.
As we stand here....sank in each other's eyes
Defeated....by the stratagem of fortunes
There are no teardrops....no emotions
We don't quiver even as the sun starts to set
And in this strangeness of the moment
The sun slowly disappears below the horizon
As the day approaches to end...welcoming the night
We yet stand still in the faintest light
Unaware....that all of it will be lost
In a second..............
And in a sudden strangeness.....
Twilight fades and dusk breaks.....
Blackening the sky....and our lives
Now, as we stand here...in the darkest of all nights
Invisible....like stars in the sunlight
There are no adieus....no goodbyes
We don't look back as we walk away
And that's how we part our ways...
FOREVER...........................
