Disorder X
I heard that she
has come
Here in this
gathering,
I do not look,
Do not trust my
eyes anymore,
I see her
everywhere.
On a slow fire
I constantly
simmer,
Can’t seem to get
Enough time to
even think,
Even though I just
do that all day.
Where wave after
wave rolls in,
To retreat,
And like the sea,
I also don’t seem
to get tired, bored,
To imagine and
re-imagine
When the contact
happens,
And it swings
between
Acceptance or
rejection,
But either way I
am swinging…
Days pass, where I
pretend
To be physically
present
Except my eyes,
They want to go
inside,
Be with those
thoughts
In that dark
cave
Which doesn’t seem
to have
The desire to push
them out
Back to the edge
of existence,
To gather light
rays to be illuminated,
Her thoughts are
enough….
I stop playing
In the middle of a
computer game,
Give up reading a
book
In the middle of a
page..
Every song I hear
Seems to be
talking about her,
Goofy grins in my
face appears out of nowhere,
My friends are
getting scared
Of my (empty)
stares,
Even jokes and
pranks
Seem too loud to
me now.
It is a disease...
man, its disorder X.

Deliberate exploration of love-sick state of mind and attempts to get influenced by Ghazals and grandiosity of a lover… towards the last stanza suffocation made me jump into a modern adolescent type antic.
well captured!
