Unfulfilled

By Febin Joe Kurian

In separation, you remain a song echoing in my heart,

Longingly, I search for a path in this twilight.

Without knowing the way, where does time go?

Without tears, I seek your footsteps.

In dreams, beneath the allure of your gaze,

I nurture a longing, my fervent quest for love.

When my every thought is painted with your essence,

The sky blushes softly as the day whispers into silence.

In the  labyrinth of my mind, I pursue you, lost without a guide,

When the rain pours, I become your earth

Memories and evenings turn into waves,

In this soil, lamps and fireflies will perish.
