The Gaze........

I walked down the street in all that peppy and chirpy mood….

Friends and frolic had their own tunes…..

Those carefree hearts were blind to all worries and trampled all hindrances.

The youth within my soul who didn’t give a damn to the bewildered sway at my end,got stuck when I encountered her gaze!!

The erroneous mind had never taken a halt before it saw the drenched eyes of that tender soul….

The aggressive heart shook with a pulse of a calm soul to sense the importune at that end….

A mother who sat with her child at the end trying to hide him from this world where people like us ,who only plagiarize over poverty and drive motions against it.

But oh …!!!!

I still cant answer , as to why my heart pricked to see the twinge ………

Pain in those eyes that had a thousand grievances , but no one to sense them…….

The eyes that dashed questions on me…

“ The mighty Lord has created my son with the same treasure of innocence as he has created you…

He has imparted those gem elements in him and you….

He too faces the divine factor –LOVE as you do…

Then why cant I see him in the shell of security and happiness in future as you are today….

Why is there darkness prevailing near him…..

Why does he have to step into harsh facts when you still retain the innocence…….

Why is that the materialism makes you accepted in this world and segregate us…

Why??????? “

I had never felt so heavy ; never had this pinch to blast off the situation.

I could not gather the courage to face her again……

I just walked past her into my own euphoric world where I had come from ;trying to regain myself.

I thought I was successful with my good old escapist attitude…..

I had tried to instill that jerky happiness in me!

But no…!!!!!!

I was wrong ……

I realized I could not get rid of it…..it stood beside me…

The Gaze…….it had walked into me!!!!!!!
