THE PASSING CLOUD

This poem was writtern because I was always a person who could never stand seperation. But somehow in life the ones who mattered a lot, seldom stayed. And learning it the hard way made me write a poem to all those who arent still clinging on....


P.s: Best friends are forever.... And this doesnt refer to anyone of them!!



The Passing Cloud


There lived a boy

In a world of his own

He dint want friends

Or they didnt want him

But that’s how he lived

In a world of his own



He loved to talk

Loved to chatter

Talk aloud to ones it dint matter

But he didn’t care as he lived

In a world of his own



People came and people went

But no one stayed as a tenant

His heart so weak,

Were empty spaces, seldom filled!

And so he lived

In a world of his own



But when the times changed

His life raged..

People started flooding

For which there wasn’t an ending.

They all came and stayed for long

But no one knows why it didnt’t prolong



The ones he loved and the ones with care

All left him as he stood to stare

May be he changed

Or they did

All he knew was they never stayed

Against which he always prayed



Alert he was

And never shared

To anyone how his life faired

But so it changed

Into a book, always open

To the ones who dared.



Like a cloud torn by jets

The pages of his life

Remained torn by his friends

With wounds that wouldn’t heal

Even if he was big as a seal.



With the prayers unanswered,

The book remained open

Torn and tattered

But that’s what happens,

As he remained forever

A PASSING CLOUD.
