What Is That some Tension Between Lovers! Poem by Sumita Jetley

they are so much into each other
yet never meet

what do they see
abstract?
concrete!

what's the longing
the mad dash into things
strides
steps

gallops
emotions

and yet they never repeat
one sentiment at one time
oh! they kept at it

this uncertainty
this longing
this high tide of emotion

peace never prevails
in their storms

what's the longing
the mad dash into things
strides
steps

gallops
emotions

it's difficult to understand
very much an issue to know
what goes on in their mind

the times they want just
forego the sane inanities
and the night closes on them
they sleep exhausted
in each others' arms

one day
shackle free!
