Breaking Strands

How it feels

When each strands that held us together

Starts breaking.

One by one

With every twang, another strand looses

Its bonding with the rest of us

 

One by one

Each one breaks away

From the memories

The touch

And the belongingness

Like some one plucking

Petal by petal

Loves me, Loves me not

While the flower, in the process

Dies a slow death.

 

Wish you were here

Holding unto my arms

A promise of loved future

and a dying breath

How it feels to lie down slowly

In the loneliness

Of timeless

Fading depths.

 

Sands of times run out, grain by grain

 

From our clasped fingers and shaking hands.

 

It feels so lonely - The softness of dying breath.
