I evaporated
And gradually dried
Clouds felt the weight
And earth of my soul felt
That emptiness..
Heat and pressure
Make every drop of desire
To disappear ?
One by one
Finally dreams had
Escaped the surface too
Now
How much
I will be defeated??
I tried
but cudnt freeze them
Wish! I cud get stronger
to change myself into solid
but what if I sublimate*
bcoz I ?wanted
That intermediate
Stage of free flowing river..
after that fight with whole chemistry of life
clouds remind me a promise
U made once…
to condense back
so that the earth of my soul
could feel that humidity
and able to cultivate new
seedlings
so that life could breathe
not only underneath
roots ?
but soft, shiny ,fresh tendrils of hopes
cud grow again….
