Theme: Love

The Railway Platform

You stood
On the platform
Smothered by
The stench
The cacophony
The chaos,
Like a whiff
Of Zephyr
In the arid desert sands
A slender tendril
In marshy soil.

As our eyes
Caressed
And our lips
Locked,
The million moments
Of an agonizing hiatus
Melted away
And we stood alone
In a cocoon
Of togetherness.

Soon
The train
Trundled away,
And I was left stranded
Your dew drops in my eyes,
My quest for another
Platform
That would bring
You to me
For an eternal moment
Beginning
In slow motion.
