.Full Stop.


I saw those corridors closing on me
Future and past-splitting me apart,
As I got vanquished,battling with time...
And the hour took its due stride.
Banishing me with all its might
From my nest of memories-unmatched,untouched
Making me a part of it all...
Never Again,Never Anymore.
Snatching those away from my lap,
Thousands of memories....given shape through ages
And bolting them behind those doors of steel.
All by themselves-bereft and forlorn.
The door severed the bond between us
I stared at it through countless years
For my memories lie beyond it,locked up...
None to protect,None to care.
It was just then that I heard a footstep...
A voice,a clap,a cheer,a laugh
Then two,then three...then how many more
From behind the door,my haven of love..
I do not belong to that place anymore
For new breaths have ousted us
To take care of some timeless memories,
And build on them-unmatched,untouched.
That was the message from a demure God
To evict the past and pave way for 'now'
And I marooned the place with my tuft of memories
For it was my turn to put a Full Stop.
