Sometimes we agree
Sometimes we agree to disagree
Sometimes we talk
Sometimes we listen
Sometimes we just talk not to listen
And that’s when the problems arise
If we just could listen to our silence
What our heartbeats talk when we don’t talk
I have a passport to your heart and direct entry
But I do not have a manual to read your thoughts
If it would have been that simple to read your mind
But why dare where gods fear to tread
I am not sure if love is blind
But for one who loves it behooves to be
Blind, deaf and dumb and let it be
So my love, here is to all the freedom
For what you want to do, what you want to be
As long as my silence is not misconstrued
And I can be me
Alas, the dance of life
What a delicate balance it can be
I especially like the beginning of this poem, Pranab. All the verses are very eloquently written until “If it would have been that simple to read your mind”. From that moment onwards I felt like the initial strength was a bit gone. But, please, do not take me seriously as it is just a personal sensation. You now I always enjoy reading your poetry.

Beautiful. Always deep. Always thinking and always silent. Always here. Always hopeful. Always growing. Always loving. Always out of reach. Always heartache. Always me.

Sorry to be bombarding your site with my comments about my love life. I’ll try to just leave out my love life and comment about your poetry. I do love your writing. It reminds me of a voice I used to know. Thank you for your poetry. It’s musical and dynamic at the same time.

Why sorry?
Wish I could be of help but life, we have to face our own alone most of the time.

Yes, that’s very true. Thank you. Just venting, but no one can fix it. Only God can and perhaps by writing comments on here I’ve finally realized that if it had been meant to be that it would have happened by now. Keep writing. The words you have are beautiful.
