To Be A Poem!

By Neha Katakwar


Sometimes, I find myself wondering how it feels to be a poem! To be the one they read every night before sleeping, when their mind and heart is calm and light. To be the one they have fallen for, not in the first go, But in their second or third or fourth reading! Not because they aren't a good reader but because The letters and words that are embedded in me aren't easy to understand.

I wonder what it feels like to be read with so much interest and curiosity that they try over and over again to find the meaning of each and every letter, each and every word that completes my story.



I wonder what it feels like To be the poem which is beautiful yet breathtaking, To be the one that brings calmness to their heart, yet make their mind restless.

I wonder what it feels like to be the poem which talks about the ones I have loved and the ones I have lost, The moments I have lived and the ones I aspires for, The stories belonging to me and the ones I have heard of. But wait. I wonder, I really wonder if they will ever understand the poem wholly, Or just read it casually! Because, Inspite of all the dictionaries available in this outside world, they won't ever have the dictionary that lives within me, The dictionary that would make this poem a decipherable one!
