Creeping around the edge
of your logical thoughts
lurked your intuition
that did not bother with rules.

This notion of missing you
uncontrolled unplanned unexpected
a gaping hole in the heart
that gets flooded in invisible tears
as your thoughts float in the mind
This notion of missing you
Where words fall short
to describe the million emotions
that float with the million memories
This notion of missing you
all of you
invisible strings pulling on my heart
making me misty eyed in the middle of the day
and I have nothing left to say
but hear old tunes of old times
This notion of missing you
Perhaps, the leaves were meant to fall…
Perhaps, we both didn’t give our all…
Perhaps, it was that broken dream…
And perhaps it was me, who couldn’t lean,
on you.
Perhaps, it was the wounded heart…
Perhaps, our roads had to part…
Alas, perhaps is all that will ever be
Always present in thoughts,
of you and me.
The “non love challenge” was presented to me by my good friend Aquileana. Check it out here: https://aquileana.wordpress.com/2015/04/08/%E2%96%BAgreek-mythology-zeus-and-callisto-poetry-poem-challenge/ . If you haven’t been to her blog already I suggest you do so now …She is a great versatile blogger with many interests.
Coming back to the challenge, being a firm believer in love, it was a little difficult for me to write this so I had to really get my writer side out to imagine a “non love” verse. As you can tell I have not followed all the rules and I do not have the word “love” in my piece, and I have 10 lines and not sentences, also I do not think I have an adverb :D. I figured that as it was a creative piece I would just let my thoughts flow. I am not nominating anyone in particular as I just did the “love in ten sentences challenge“; however, I challenge anyone who is up for it and is willing to give “Non-Love in more than ten sentences” a try. Thanks again to my friend Aquileana for coming up with this challenge and I hope my attempt was alright. 🙂
Here is my quote:’Even After All this timeThe Sun never says to the Earth,You owe me.LookWhat happensWith a love like that,It lights the whole sky.” – Hafiz
Good luck Everyone! Do let me know if you choose to participate would love to read it!
