Endless Wait

I crossed thousand miles in a day

But can’t seem to cross few meters in years

The eternal distance between us

Am I dreaming?

Or stuck in reality

 

You burst with joy

As people get closer to you

Some known

Some unknown

While I longingly wait

For my turn to walk the distance

I brave the stormy rain, the burning sun

All filthy tests of nature

But the wait seems endless

 

Then someone walks through me

I feel pain

Not sure if it is physical

I want to move away

But I cannot

Plead with the passerby

To take me along

No one cares

For the fallen soul

 

A beautiful girl comes by

I am shaken

To wake up

To reality.

The last two lines - cool and practical..
"Then someone walks through me
I feel pain" - i loved the idea of some one walking through you!

So You are a poet!! but that doesnt mean u understand poetry.. that's because poetry is personal. it means different things for different persons. so interpreting it as the one and only thing is wrong.. nice one.. really nice
