Alphabets And Words...


Alphabet by alphabet
And word by word,
Feelings join in to form sentences.
Sentences, which are incomplete …
Without a drop of tear.

Loneliness join the alphabets in words
And, the words are held together by fear.
Fear of losing something …
Something, which I could never have.

This is so strange, the words wonder –
As they look at each another with confusion
Something is definitely wrong!
Perhaps wrong alphabets joined –
To form wrong words…
How can someone fear losing something –
One could never have?

The hand stops writing,
The pen wonders, “What next?”
The alphabets feel lost,
The words are tired,
The sentences go to bed
And, feelings keep me awake.

Very well done, Arti.

you know i came across these quote recently "We're all lonely for something we don't know we're lonely for. How else to explain the curious feeling that goes around feeling like missing somebody we've never even met?"

Maybe we all are forming wrong words, don't know..

I think I did pretty well, considering I started out with nothing but a bunch of blank paper.
