Afar, Not Away – Delhi Poetry Slam

Afar, Not Away

By Bhavna C

Not a word to say to me,
Not a thought to share,
Not a question, or a joke,
Not even a wandering spark to spare

Was it then or is it now,
Don’t know what hurts more,
The love that made me rush to you,
Now makes me stand afar and stare

Something is amiss,
Something is not right,
And while I write you poetry,
Your indifference shines bright

For it’s not in me to say final goodbyes,
But can’t let my feelings either slide by,
So yes, like a brave soul, I will face you,
Each time your memories say the time is high.
