One Mute Celebration---- 1389.6 Miles Away

Where did you get the idea that it's only the downs in life that should be shared, huh?




















In between the brief silence of

the monotonous, dragging sound of

the clicking of the keys…

In between the minute spaces

of the letters of “U” and "n” for “UNIT”

in my unfinished syllabus…

In between the predictable

ticking sound of the worn-out wall clock

at the strike of each second…

In between all of these and all 

that does not allow (supposedly) of

respite for fond thoughts...

You always,

always,  spot (without your knowing) the spaces and the in betweens

to stir my emotions

knowing that I should just put these happy

thoughts and words (for you) to sleep,

knowing silently that

you will never understand, not ever-----

that it’s not only

the "downs" in life that should be shared,

but the "ups" as well……
