Cloudless Dusk

Updated: Oct 1, 2024

By Swathy Prasad



I sat all alone, 

Looking at an empty sky! 

The inert sky; 

A cloudless dusk

 And a sublime light-

 From that far horizon! 


 These images reflect 

My uneasy mind-

 A hopeless fusion 

 Of present and past! 

 A late request 

Mounted up like

 A receding tide 

Washing away my 

Peace of mind! 


 My helplessness or

 An unintentional rejection 

 Would have caused 

 A dark hollow 

 In someone's heart! 

 But, there is 

No more space for 

Any further accommodation 

As a single man

 Has already occupied 

 Whole of my heart! 


 Some injuries 

 Are inevitable,

 Like the drooping dusk.

 It has its own 

Beauty and Pain! 

 Thus, it mellows 

To the tender light

 Far in the horizon!
