Dripping
Dripping it in a form of dew,
Oh, I was a dew-clad,
Dripping it as a sea drop,
Foams forming in a shade,
I was so glad,
My wait was over, but in vain,
Blood-clot in my vein screams your name,
I was totally insane!
Keeping aside the logistics of logics,
And, calculation of rationals,
I gave in sentiments thinking you were the one;
Taking a leap of faith, is it fair?!
Sometimes brevity and bravery is caused
for naivety of innocuous innocence,
I was innocent when fell under your seductive spell,
I was foolish that I succumbed in your manipulated game,
But, at the end, you lost the pendent, it was evident!
I came out with a victory, healed in this journey,
A bunch of learned lessons avail.
Dripping over my face from the mountain-cloud,
Your taunts were so loud to break my doubt,
Without giving a second thought- I had to leave you,
A thought I gave a pause many many a times when surrendered,
Until I found my inner voice that I claimed,
Unleashed the healing, unlearned the meanings that was only meaningful to me but not you,
Cause, in the fiction of love and hate,
It was only me who created you; your image!
I had to lose you to love myself,
Dripping so profoundly over my face,
In the epiphany of joy and wonder,
Nothing less precious not more heavier-
It's my bloody eyes, my dear tears-
Dripping so fresh!
