Distance Poem by Kingshuk Chakraborty

You aren't with me.
But the shadow of you
When gets bigger in my wearied mind,
And the inexplicable distance hurts;
I cannot cross it over.

Sinking in that pain,
Do not know when
Distrait I
Open the window of Facebook.

My eyes discover
And then unknowingly follow
Your footmarks.
I walk along
Your feelings,
Your thoughts,
Your memories
And suddenly see
Those footprints are lost
Amidst the crowd.
I do not find them anymore.

In the abyss of my heart
The distance between us
Like a cloud brings in tears
I close the window of Facebook
But it can't stop me from getting drenched.
