Do you know what's this?
This unseen thread of tie
Lying loosely between us
Most of times, but get tight,
Very tight sometimes.

Yes, there was a beginning
When the knots were tied,
A tie in your mind and
A tie in my mind.

Sure, you were not sure that
You wanted this tie at all.
I too was not sure that
I wanted it either.
Nonetheless the thread decided
That the two minds needed to be tied.

And then time passed..
And the thread played
Its games of love galore.
Games of pulling us to our cores
The two knots merging together.
Games of stretching us apart
As though to snap the ties forever.

Some Big Hands pushed, pressed
And crushed us into such tiny spaces
That we turned into bright dot of star
Or pulled us so hard apart that we
Ended in separate planets.

Yet the thread was the winner tossing
Us about at dangerous gyrations.
We rammed into one another
With fatal impacts scattering us to splinters
Yet soon we got intoxicated within us
With the immeasurable sweetness of love.

This being the story,
Do you know what's  this ?
What do we do with this
Seemingly all powerful thread
Of what-ever-is between us ?

Do we cut it to bleed,
Run away from each other
Thinning the thread to an idea..
Or do we leave it as it is.
