Lost Poeticism

Words bloom later, seasons and poets have drifted apart

Poetic emotions lose relevance, like a lost child in a busy street

Far away from home, mixed feelings about the indifferent world

Where is that romanticism of life?

Ossified heart have fallen into a deep chasm, feels no more

Love does not pulsate anymore; it’s a ritual, a mere symbolism

Comparison with proximity, but there is an aloofness in intimacy

No one embraces the agony anymore- a bruised world has no healing

Feels numb; loss of poeticism, fumbling for rhythm within a spiral chaos

Poet waits for the epiphanies, perhaps, there is still someone out there

Not even one soul? In the vast cosmic surprise- come embrace me
