Comfortable silences

A tiny thought traversed my mind
gentle nudgy floating one
beaming at a dear lover
love or lover addictive?

crazy passionate attachment
someday
will this too end in fragment?
morbid thoughts of end, why now?

everything has an expiry date
date set in the books of destiny
no forevers
no happily ever afters

impermanence wins
how much ever you feign
at best life happens
in fleeting now's

laughing at a silly joke
singing a song out of tune
sip, talk till coffee gets cold
bear hugs in every adios

love worth the whole world wide
yet love at best is tiring and fragile
more reasons to end than keep
large books of destiny were written

karmic debts was it?
how much did I owe?
lo and behold
expensive with tears and pain

missing the arms to embrace in
shoulder to lean on
calling back resilience
time to show up for self

comfortably navigating
uncomfortable silences
rivulets of words
flows gracefully to poetry
rivulets of silence
flows to sea of Divine solitude!
