Why can't you write?
I had a soul, trekking
Up the mountain peaks,
Where they said-
The color of the poetry will be
just the color of the stars.
Each word adorned with stardust.
I had my lousy poetry, trekking up there
In every sleep. In every dream.
Armours painted with
pale shade of gloominess
paused the felicity,
paused the starlight- Midway.
The poetry I craft on Earth, changes everyday.
Constructs everyday.
Deconstructs everyday.
I exhaled an avalanche
Raindrops hit the roof top
The young author died
And the color of my poetry changed.
Apologies. Apologies. Apologies.
Thousands of them
Millions of time, I asked my poetry back.
My words plundered. It does not rain now.
Perhaps the sound of water is too easy.
Some futile poems, I discarded.
I seeked for the color of Air.
A room full of intellectual debates,
chokes my poetry.
Peeping through the window, I asked my poetry back
but-
they could only give me a handful of Air.
Perhaps, I cannot culminate.
Perhaps, I am not a
P O E T.
