#*Lost in the now
Present somewhere 
Reading words 
Essence vaporised 
Lost to time 
Moments afore 

Happy is my world 
Love my people
Yet , 
When Words on the wheel
Redundant 
Elusive, they feel
I feel alienated with self 

Life’s busy
Too Many chores 
Listen to my music 
Remembering loved ones 
Barely making calls 
A Recluse 
Have I become one*#

The &#8220;When Words on the Wheel Redundant &#8220; Part is mind blowing.

pradip-chattopadhyay

Poets are not very adept in spoken words and socializing.
But I know Sarita, you'll not feel a recluse for long.

Barely making calls sometimes that is me I am so busy remembering loved ones I will always remember  in my heart

At times the various engagements and the pressing chores make us shut to the external world.... ! I too have been passing through such a time, but it was fun with my close ones staying abroad congregating in my house for almost two weeks ! I know how busy you are with your husband mostly on tour and handling two teenager boys all by yourself  !

maybe not such a bad thing - "Listen to my music 
Remembering loved ones 
Barely making calls 
A Recluse 
Have I become one" maybe you're doing exactly what you need to be doing and being, blessings, sue
