The last dregs of coffee...
Drained from the lonely cup…
And, as I get up to lose myself in the world, again
I stumble on the threshold of her eyes…
An eternity passes between us,
While the world measures seconds…
I hang on to every inconsequential syllable…
Hoping to hear some more
Walking away is hard yet necessary…
As, I bury hope, trying to forget the stranger…
But, she finds me
In the mess of an electronic mesh
The unsure, tentative steps…
Lead to long late night chats…
As, we talk of life and chrysanthemums...
While, welcoming the birds home
The future’s uncertain…
The afterglow of the setting sun…
Burns like fire..
While I wonder, does it mean anything?

To me the setting sun always keeping hope alive for a better tomorrow .
Some times I think why the young hearts are so worried / Anxious about uncertain future.Why can't poet sets aside the electronic mesh and breathe under blue sky.

While I wonder, does it mean anything?" We all tend to be over indulgent in the most futile of things at some or the other point of time in our lives...and you have woven these into a beautiful web that shows life through a keyhole...Thank you... for writing such a beautiful conclusion...Keep writing

Chrysanthemums...I love them yellow. Setting sun...I always choose it over sunrise...
