(k)no(w) (k)not



all grown up – well, almost

the falls, the cuts, the scars to show

the stifled sobs

the road relentless,scarce a pause

to what purpose, to what end, did i ever know?


all ready to set free – well, almost

the good, the better, the warmth to show

the bad,the ugly

the wounds hacked repeatedly

what would stay, what would leave, did i ever know?


all ready to leave – well, almost

the person, the spirit, the memories to show

the anti-, the con

the push and shove to move on

my choice not to keep, only let go, did i ever know?


change beckons? never again, or ever now?

time calls? hasten forward or hark until?

life wonders? an old beginning or a new end?

the previous I know now, but these i donot still…

hey Kriti ! I came across your blog when i googled the word "pleomorphism".

honestly, i am not much of a poetry fan, but i like your (for the lack of a better term) non-poetic writings. you have a very simple style of writing, but you also have a gift with words.

Thanks for the interesting posts !
