Solitary Reaper

a poem by Sathya N K

Amid all the fun, frolic and the crowd
a silent restless heart treads un-noticed
all along searching for company
aching for a shoulder to lean upon if any!

Yearning for someone, who would care to listen.
liberate thy from the isolated prison.
Longing and longing for just one smile,
which can spread its glow for a while.

Dispel the darkness till it is no more
and wipe away thy tears controlled sore
Bring back the lost twinkle into the eye
and take the poignant heart’s spirit high.

But for now, left muttering to self at lest.
keep it going, take the present as a healthy test
after all there are times when you are alone
It’s up to thy to laugh or mourn!
