As I waited

Sitting in a corner,
Like a loner,
I lay pondering over your thoughts,
You dint turn up after all my waits.


Expectations burnt inside me with glare,
Seldom for which do you care?
Vacant seats filled up with all couples,
The noise of all talks and many chuckles.


Time fled in silence yet,
No signs of you, but,
My eyeballs raced, door to the podium,
Awaiting a figure, if at all you come.


My heart wept, not eyes,
As I waited, For You.                                                              
                                                                                                         


Cheers,
Sush

  3. I have so many thoughts, depending on how I interpret the poem. The first thing I thought of on reading it was the picture of the labrador lying under the flag-draped coffin on his military master at his funeral, and thinking this way, I'd say simply 'Grief'.

    But for a broader interpretation, I can't do better than F Scott Fitzgerald's book title: 'Beloved Infidel'.
