I woke up cursing the day for it dawned
I stepped onto the balcony,
Hoping the sun to do its magic
of snapping me back to reality.
That was when I noticed
That the grass was drying away
The green patch was transforming to dry and yellow speckles.
When did the rainy season end?
It is going to be all dry now
And why don’t I remember it
What was I doing when the rains lashed out
I was too busy sustaining
Feeling sorry for myself and indulged in my dark place
I was busy dealing with so called life
And this beauty who I wait for entire year
It came, it bloomed, it left.
Transpired, materialized, and left
How many of these am I going to miss
Will I ever know how to live
Or I am living just for the sake of it
