When my eyes meet
your gaze,
this distance
seems like
a silent meander.
My forlorn mind
goes adrift,
until you satisfy its
naked canvas
with your
colored notions,
blemished speculations,
and incredulous gimmicks.

Posted for Trifecta Writing Challenge: Week 114.

When you love something, it’s not easy to let it go all of a sudden; that’s why we hold on to memory of good places, people and moments. I am a silent reader of Trifecta Writing Challenge; I read every single post on their prompts every week; sometimes I clap, sometimes I re-read while admiring in silence. Trifecta has gifted me many definitions of new and old words, many reflective evenings with those words, and fellowship of a bunch of brilliant bloggers who write. I still cannot believe Trifecta challenge is ending; I will keep my winner badge as a token of bright nostalgia on this site.
