Life goes on

Moving blind to kill the alarm
Rise and shine my prince charm…
Brush and wash and run
Scream and sing loud in bathroom…
Brisk walk to railway station
Push jostle and wait till destination…
Grab a bite and gulp milk pint
Race towards office to start the day’s glint…
Take calls… clear files
Type mails that go miles and miles…
Get dunked in work
Try not to go berserk…
Look at clock and groan in pain
No time for lunch and my tummy strains…
Toll till darkness
Call it a day of madness…
Walk back to train
Reach home inane…
Nimble dinner in absent mind…
All the while dreaming that she is mine
Snap the lights shut
Cover self in quilt…
Look deep in darkness
Cried silent in bitterness…
Life goes on for him
Life goes on for her…
What’s left in heart is…
What they both longed for…
