JUST AN ACQUAINTANCE
Words and feelings trying to become a poem You were no one to me But we were on the same train After ten hours, our paths intersected You said Hi! And we got acquainted. You were no one to me but travelled two hours with me I reached my destination so, we went our separate ways Again, we were strangers, Following each other on social media Liking stories and commenting on posts I remember, if you were a book, you wanted to be ‘champak’ Fifteen hours of acquaintance and we knew nothing about each other And one fine evening you disappeared, trying to leave behind a mystery Now you’re gone (forever) and gone is the voice that called me “Wikipedia” And how ironic is that, I never knew the day you were born But now I’ll not forget the day you were gone… # BE.0G.BB
