I didn't know,
when it arrived,
I tried to evade,
but it crept inside.
From school days,
to college times,
springtime of life,
only hastened the divide.
I got engrossed,
I was absorbed,
enduring disappointments,
preying on the mind.
A dreamer in real world,
still being stubborn to admit,
holding to the fears & pride,
of the flaws, things lacking.
Averting the gaze,
I couldn't stagnate,
with passage of time,
got rudely awakened.
Now it whispers,
once in a while,
when there's rain,
or rays of sunshine.
I let out a sigh,
putting a polite smile,
changing directions,
closing my eyes.
To not let them reach,
Where emptiness lies . . .
