No More The Same

Siddhesh
[Originally published on https://siddheshmahendra.wordpress.com/ (in Siddhesh 17)]

I am like that abandoned mansion
Wide and tall but lacking any luster
Pure and prismatic
But have got no acceptance
I might be pretty on the external
But from inside I’m all broken and rusted
The air in the room
Blitzes on my skin
It’s not still anymore
It demands my heed

My heart beats intensely
My head reckons hastily
Something calls my attention
I have no idea
About what the rush is

I sat there all lonely and deserted
With a body filled of thousand emotions
You walk past me
We do not smile
We do not touch
I tell you it’s all changed, it’s no more the same
