Zeroline Poem by Paramananda Mahanta

Zero line: LOC of a relationship

Standing on the shoreline
looking at the waves,
Unrest there day and night
for dawn and dusk are raved.
Looking at thedistant land
and looking at the sea,
They are ingreen and blue
for their spilling out glee.
One is standing miles for ages
Other tenders his knees,
Butthe shore acts asbufferline
Always rejects his plea.
Both are trying at the shore
the zeroline of their touch,
Though hands in hands all they stand
Their identities beat them most.
When their utter distress makes its stay
people comment and say,
"thedistant land and far the sea"
To keep them at their bay.

Zero line; 2

A symphony of the symptomatic life
drums always to end its strife,
Sometimes ahead and sometimes behind
It is safe to choose the zeroline.
It is the margin to start a love
And the margin of sensual zest,
A step ahead is encroachment,
But a step behind is negligence.
