My Humming Word

At a time during a phase of life
Passion and emotions ran so high…
Life without her was beyond imagination
He would become anxious and lonesome
With a very feeling of her non-appearance.

But the time spares no one
He had to live a long life without her
Enormity of loss drenched spark of life
Which turned out to be merely a chorus
Of temporal duties and commitments.

An aeon of longing, he spoke to her
With the very feeling of her attendance
Words failed him into a bundle of nerves
That even for a customary get going
He resorted to emptying a full water glass.

During all these lonesome years
Through the pain he endured lifelong
He has so often kept on contemplating…
The color of vermilion is so dark and stark
It overshadows all other colours of life.

(Vermilion is considered auspicious and significant mainly in Hindu culture. It is a symbol of marital bliss and is worn by many Hindu women on their forehead, more specifically along the hair parting. It is also applied on deities Hanuman (symbol of devotion, strength & remover of obstacles) and Goddess Durga/Kali (symbol of the supreme female energy in cosmos).
