#protagonists
It's the awkwardness and strangeness and
slugging-in-time-ness
of discovering a new
person.
Too often, movies portray the meeting of the
protagonists as some
heady rush or a
whirlwind of sparks or some
******** like that.
In reality, it's a slow fire
laboriously
begun with two
sticks.
And sometimes that fire never even starts.

On this stage
Now the spotlight shines
Eager audience
Waiting for you to deliver
Speak loud
To reach all ears in the hall
Voice maybe sore
This is your moment
The spotlight may dim anytime
And shift from you
Leaving you in the dark
Fewer audiences
With your feeble voice
Only left to mime
Or maybe a few soliloquy
Life takes a turn, suddenly
Blame it on the spotlight
And fickle minds
That’s how life’s drama is
Curtains down
When we least expect

Looking forward to a beginning
Everyday will be written a new saga
Few, we shall carry forward
After the ellipsis
Much happens even during a hiatus
We are stretched ahead
Time pulls us away to a new realm
New vistas and landscape
Fresh flowers and aroma
Old vases shall hold them
With much pride
Amidst the new rooms
Every wall has a door
Welcoming the new beginning
Old and new protagonists
Have taken the pledge
To give a new twist to the saga
Sometime we take a turn
Allowing us to reclaim
That was elusive in the past
Fresh ink
Shall fill the void on paper
New chapter, new beginning
Story shall continue
With renewed charm
Miracle do happen
If you believe
