Mind entangled.
Goals distant.
Destination different.
Expensive mural.
Joy ephemeral.
Feelings truncated.
Love fabricated.
Two strangers,
together but apart,
In one home,
nay, one house.

ReplyDeleteThank you Apala S. But the mood is sad but true.
DeleteAww, sad :(
ReplyDeleteIt is sad, Rainbow Hues.
DeleteA home is no longer a home if the emotions and relations are not nurtured with love and care. Sad.
ReplyDeleteThough you chose to write in a very few words, your poem speaks a lot.
Take care.
Thanks for the nice compliment, Bhavya.This is the sad state of modern marriages.
DeleteBeautifully written Kalpana and I loved the new look of your blog... too colourful and peppy!!
ReplyDeleteThank you , dear.
DeleteKalpana dearest..you waited to start this challenge..and wowow!!!Though painful..I loved the way you wrote it.. So powerful that my first reaction was a small prayer for peace and love back again in lives of those who have this as story of their life..
ReplyDeleteThose who have this life, I pray , should set their house in order to make it a home.Thanks dear.
