If Only

I’m listening to the rain pouring down
In the street where there is no other sound
I’m standing here with an umbrella in my hand
Listening to the sound and feeling it in my head
Trying to imagine the colors around me
I’m erasing the darkness inside me.
the freshness of a raindrop when it touches my skin
The smell of wet mud...
If only I could see it with my own eyes
If only I could erase the darkness completely
I would want to see the colors which reflects on raindrop again,
The fresh green color of the leaves,
A smile on the face of people I love
Those silent tears that they drop because of what happened to me
That pain in their eyes that I cannot see
I can feel these emotions better than before
But if only I could see these things once again
I would want to see that fresh rain drop
Which smiled to me..
When it dropped on me……

  1. you can't see these things because u have shut down your eyes ---
    to feel it;
    to sense it...

    if there has been any darkness in you ...
    then such a fair confession hasn't come out of you

    you want to see the rainbow colors again...
    because you want to take more of it to fill in you...

  2. if there has been any darkness in u then how could have u realized that the first drop of rain which touched u ----was smiling.....

    so keep your eyes closed....you will sense the things deeply.... and then some good poem will come out of your heart...
