Solitude

I love solitude, the way

It makes me realise the purity of things.

No color, No shades of light

Blurs the vision, which bothers me

Since long time.

 Here, I touched the faces

Actually beloved to me 'Inside'

Whose presence withheld the shapes

Often meets me in a dreamy state.

This was the time

I got a chance to slip into you

A complete you

 You yourself were unaware.

But the fact is, I lost you

The time, I know you.

You and Me are the pebbles

That fades when it comes to light.

It is not always necessary

To fill the pictures

Sometimes its edges tell you

The complete story that hides

In the happiest eyes.
