Alone | Vibhuti Choudhary

Alone, the only

kind of being

that renders one

to take unrevealed paths

missed on account

of collective timidity.

It imparts the faculty

to notice the unseen;

On tiniest attributes

compelling

the heart to be keen,

to catch sight of

a flurry of

golden leaves

In the midst of

gusty winds ;

to drift to the

magical rhythm

that nature brings.

Capable of

tormenting you still

oddly at times,

Muddling through

with wails and whines,

Wounds demanding

to be tended to by self

cry for help

however too hesitant.

Lost in maze

Of left and right

of faraway and the essence

one may lose sight.

There is one world

Huddling and

floating outside,

but to have woven

your universe

within you

swarming with

dainty

vivid musings

is a luxury

which cannot

be afforded

by the poor in solitude,

opulent in crowds;

a liberty

that can't be borne

by the one

steering the masses

but reckless in mirrors.

To gauge a room

From a corner

to the farthest

and bumping into

nothingness all along

a rarity only

some are willing to find

who seek voids

to fill them

with water hued

brilliantly with

red, yellow and blue

Unlike your typical

Pink, purple or green,

deriving jubilation

from none but within!
