Ray of Light in Broad Daylight

By Nitika Khanna

I tried to follow your light in the night time 

with no other gleam I trusted you to guide me through darkness 

despite having all the worldly possessions for you I acted as if I owned not a single dime . how can I blame you when it was my own absurdness ? 

How ignorant of me to overlook the fact that the ray of light you showed me would not have been visible in  broad daylight. 

now that I am standing in daylight hours away from dusk  

I cast aspersions that would I ever be able to catch sight of an effulgence so bright ? Or my stars have aligned in a way that I will always stay stuck ? 

How obtuse of you to make me skeptical about proclivity of being loved  

whenever I see people in love I don't wish to be loved but all I yearn for is too love someone like I loved you Despite being in a radiant phase that darkness still haunts me with apathy and feeling of being cusped  tell me are you able to see the shining beam even in day light or you have no clue ?
