TWO STRANGERS.

Emotions mangled.

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.

  2. A home is no longer a home if the emotions and relations are not nurtured with love and care. Sad.
    Though you chose to write in a very few words, your poem speaks a lot.
    Take care.
