Nothing much to say..

-Karthik Gurumurthy
Some days, the words go missing,
while I go seeking everywhere,
only to find them curled up at my feet.
Unsure and riddled by doubts,
I wonder, then—
is it their fault or mine,
that I am fumbling?
Silence—stands askance,
and casts me a look,
as if trying to measure
the weight of my unspoken words
against its’ power.
When they come asking
if I’ve conceded defeat,
I pause.
And re-tracing my steps,
I say to them—
some answers are meant to be elusive,
only to hang in mid air,
suspended across the chasms,
for Time alone has the answer.
