A RERUN

The white screen stares at me
How many times more will you erase 
the vowels and consonants
Are words failing you today?
Are morphemes and phonemes 
struggling to give shape to your thoughts?

What are you scared of?
The past may linger
the mistakes concealed in heart
may spill and spoil the present
You have been forgiven
Move on, life is colourful
where ever you glance.

Everyone is too caught up in their lives
to even stare at yours
Do you feel an emptiness?
Or do you not know even now how you feel?
These moments come for everyone.
You are just the same like them
And who are they to judge you?
All of them have hidden secrets
which will be buried or burnt.


Are you not able to count 
the unending passing seasons
Is your memory fading 
or does life seem too long 
to keep moving on?
Sometimes it is emptiness
and sometimes its monotonous routine
What do you want?
Or do you even know the answer now?

Do you still need time to figure out
Are attachments worrying you
Or are you afraid to live all alone
In this huge world all by yourself?
Look closely, are you actually not alone now?
Then why bother, whether seasons change or faces.

It's all right if all questions in your head do not have answers
Or if the brain is inadequate to comprehend anything
This is your journey, live as you want it,
Only remember, it's your life and 
Only you know what hills you climbed 
and what rivers you crossed
You need not justify to anyone
About anything in life
The more you talk to yourself
than others, you realise
that life is actually beautiful.
