Waiting Her in a lonely Moment

Dr Sudhansu Dash

She comes un noticed in a lonely moment

When stars are in deep slumber

In a no moon night

Lest the moon would be ashamed of her intolerable beauty

Her murderous innocency

Fingers on the finest cords of my insider

The tombs under my breast are awakened

With the smell of words

Vibrating each cell in a mysterious thrill to the abyss

But with the cruel condition

When She is there I must not be there

When I am there She must not be there

Leaving an injurious distance between She and I

She is afraid of bondage

Even the bondage of love is painful to her

I search her in the sky, sea and mountains

My attempts to hold her with my tricky words

Destroys her celestial beauty.

She flies away to a deep solitude

Leaving the echo of her dry foot print

Only remain the words, but not She

I miss her moment to moment

With eyes stretching to the untrusted horizon

Waiting for her return

Perhaps I am destined to wait for her absented presence.
