Its not easy
let me admit
to be alone
I figured this out
as I started to try
to be on my own
Throw open the curtains
when you're ready
to meet the sun
And the windows
to smell the evening rain
that first and then this one
Cook just enough
Have music fill your head
Lest anything else does
Step it up and sweat it out
Feels good it does, the work out
Left and right. Forward and back
Turn off the TV
Pick the book instead
And then back to "Crime at 10"
Eat when you're hungry
Pray when you're down
and pray when you're up!
Make that list
Plan your day
Strike 'em off, in pink today
Call a friend, meet one
Call another, wait some
Listen, its still raining.
Finish that report
Blog this out
Write a bit, think it through
Peel away, fear!
Tie up your hair
Set it free too
Some mango ice cream
Some Roohafzaa
Defrost the fridge and wipe floor clean
One meal to another
This task to the next
Stay alive now, last it out
I long for a terrace
to spy on the world
while staying unseen
Better still
climb and stand tall
on a mountain top, green
Be wrapped up by the winds
and fly with them
all thoughts away!
There, alone is ok
the self breathes deep
amidst the mist and its silence
Listen, it rains still
outside these windows
Alone I sit, behind these curtains
Its not easy, I admit
to be alone
Lets see how well I last
before my dear is home.
