illusory moments spent in stupidity!

              BRIEF ENCOUNTER   -By Pema Choidar

Ø I lay awake amid the darkness,

        Drowning in my bleeding heart,

         Parched for mind to be complacent

         Pining since we’ve been apart.

 

Ø Hard for hearts to know the Heart,

         Or what lurks in limpid eyes,

         Smiles entice, tender the touch,

         Yet fails to see what hides behind.

 

Ø Transported by out secret tryst,

        Left me blinded to the truth;

        From the moment my Angel fled,

        Arrived my bitter blues.
