Nov 2021
Storms of emotional turmoil rocked her heart
She liked him from the outset,
When she started to know him
It seemed like blissful adventure at first
That trip that promised a lot
Suddenly it became a rollercoaster
Twists and turns, ups and downs
She seemed lost in all of it
Amazingly , he seemed calm
He was calm
How  could he manage this
He was driving this ship like a maniac
Taking random turns
Which was driving her mad 😠 😡
She asked to see the map,
Where are they headed , she queried
Where the wind takes us, he answered casually
She started to wrestle with her emotions
She was willing to abandon this trip
She needed her life back
Its no time for silly adventures
The time and place for that had gone
What she wanted is a plan and structure
Stability and Control
This ..whatever this is
Offered none , she felt
He looked at her with understanding
He was cut from a different cloth
He came from a different universe
He chose to look at life differently
Circumstances don't make him
They revealed who he is
He welcomed her to stay the course
But did not it insist
May be the great connection , wasn't a connection after all
It was just but a passing infatuation
A spark that threatened to start a inferno
But soon extinguished without a whiff of smoke
What a shame, all is left  is sense of wonder
Unfulfilled desire, unrealised wish
But then, Such is life.
