Cloudburst

Starts the Cloudburst…

Lounged beside the window…

with a cup of coco

feeling nostalgic.

Comes the Cloudburst…

Wouldn’t the sun shine?

Because there were monsoons…

When you were mine.

Bestows,the Cloudburst…

A bag of feelings,

A bag of letters…

Which I never wrote to you.

Makes me remember,the Cloudburst…

we sat in our concealment;

Talking our hearts-out…

While the radio played our favorite song.

Oblivious,the Cloudburst…

How messed up my inside is-now,

All I can manage now-is

a blank stare,a bland smile.

The remains of you..

remain untouched.

A prized-possession for now;

Amidst the ruins.

Sways,the Cloudburst…

And slays the anguish…

Washes away the debris;

My woes languish.

Aftermath,

My tears cried;

I disowned them.

My cries died…

Healed,the mayhem.

Period.
