Lost Connection

By Sonali Mishra

The memories I advocate here;

All of you could relate

There was once this time our hearts had

Resemblance to a clear slate

We argued like a stubborn kid

To land in a world of agony

He warned us against the distance and

The difficulties throughout this journey

We merrily ignored all the cautions,

Only to plead a little louder

He gift packed the remedy

In the form of his holy name

Waving us with a heavy heart

We saw him with our eyes shut

Till the slates had no sots

It was less of him thereafter

As the senses took over

And here we are like a stupid child

Who lost all his track

In a playhouse gifted by his father.
