do you see the rain?
I can see it very well though
the persistent
drops
falling against my windowpane
I wish it shatters
into a million pieces
it has already crashed into my
reverie
you don’t see the rain?
I can feel it
in every
vein
in every part of
my body
I can sense it
beating nonchalantly
against the
unyielding glass
I relish it
relish in the
damp scent
relish in its
humming
but you don’t
things have been quiet enough now
lets break the silence
or at least
let us welcome The
Rain
but no
you don’t hear it
you won’t
hear of it
you would rather
continue
this
infinite stretch
of hushed silence
the rain though, it seems
has conspired against you
did you hear that sound?
I think those were
applause

ReplyDeletethanks a lot Shweta.. it's a very late comment.. but here it is :). I wanted to picture the growing silence between the couple.. in fact, rather than the visual aspect, I wanted the sound to dominate.. hope this answers your query..
