Alone at Heart

Tons of shadows pass by,

On a basis, perhaps daily,

Exchanging thoughts, even

Incomprehensible to self.


Spontaneous interactions,

Where the mind feels-

Free, to utter every gush-

Of words. that sway free.


Laughing with some,

Others on a serious note.

Few talks become scary

And rest stay gloomy.


The moments I laugh,

The serious instances,

The ones where I'm afraid,

Hide in the corners.


But the ones which,

Make me dismal,

Hover on the surface.

Tending to dreariness.


I find very few

Rather none,

Who can bring the smile,

Back, as that in the day.


Sometimes, tears flow down

In sympathy for myself.

But recently, the regularity

Has made them even dry.


On a basis, perhaps daily,

I wake up smiling, and

End up with a frown,

Even the heart doesn't ache-

A perfect lump of blood.
