White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-10
BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY
The more
I look at you,
the more
I peep into the past
and go down the memory lane,
the more I fall in love.
I envy
the life you lead
in the midst of nature,
the modest belonging
and petty wishes
you had.
I have the avenues
that make life
easy and comfortable
but lack
that emotion and passion,
and am a lonely man
in the midst of a crowd.
Life is hectic and fast,
runs as if a machine
dedicated to its task,
no time for the other,
love and reciprocation,
modern man is
devoid of a heart.
l long for
the life you lived
and the death you had,
close to self,
in nature's lap.
