…………..
Do I care
Because I want to consume
The nectar of a flower
Showering its aroma all around
Or is it the pungency
Of a poignant prayer
That has gone sour
Why can’t we share the space
Between known and unknown
Said and unsaid
Touched and untouched
As a sacred vow
Of silence
The moment one says
It
The sound escapes
Vow is broken
Tears swell
And banks shiver
Do you want
Precautious predators
Of pious intentions to
Devour all that exists between
Calm
Quiet
Serene
Silence
And claimed ownership of
A shared corridor
That can not be partitioned
Decide
Determine
Desire and
Destroy
