The first time, we looked at each other,
Like strangers at the lonely sandy shore,
For many seconds, minutes, and hours
Long and delicious, flamed both our emotions;
Our love and passion were in depths of desires;
A seductive, innocent inner feelings steeped in;
Later, unknowingly you held me so tight;
an inspiration that I felt only when you left.
Then miles apart you stayed back in dark;
And I still wonder when you will be back !

Poetry dates all the way back to the beginnings of Humanity. People have always been questioning nature, and the day-to-day existence of themselves and other humans love, death, survival, war, injustice, and the universe are all examples of things that have been questioned by men and woman since the roots of human existence. Whether in nursery rhyme, ballad, jingle, rhyme, anthem, or music, people have found poetry to be an outlet for expressing these questions, sensations, and experiences
People often associate it with strict rhyming patterns, complicated vocabulary, hidden iconic meanings, and difficult rhythmical conventions. Poetry is even taught in school to be an intricate, complicated, inexplicable puzzle. True, poetry is difficult. Sure, it can be harder to understand than prose.
However, that is only because sometimes it is involved
with your inescapable complexities and uncertainties of your existence.
