Avoidance

Once their benign touch

Furnished my heart

With care and love .

Now its absence benighted me

Into a murky world of silence.

 

Where is that voice

sprouted voice of love on me ?

Where is that smile

Fabricated smile of kindness on me ?

 

I don’t know ….

Everything is gone somewhere

By the cryptic touch of avoidance.

 

I don’t know why……

they loved me.. , cared me ..

And don’t why they……

morosely flashing the light

Of avoidance on me now

Through the eyes once they

displayed their love and care

On me without my approval.

 

Oh God , neither they requested me

Nor I accepted while they showed

Their affection on me once Or

while showing avoidance on me now.

 

Now I know…..

Avoidance is the follower of

All affection which abut our heart

Without our permission.

 

Now I know ….

It’s better to being devoid of all

Affections than being avoided

By someone for no reason

And living in the hellish darkness.
