INVINCIBLE, INVISIBLE TIME

In the beginning,
no invisible wall,
separated us.
Shared we,
joys, sorrows and secrets,
no inhibitions,
whatsoever.
Remembering thee,
the day we met first,
the dress both wore,
tea you served,
the sly smiling glance you cast,
shyness glinting in your eyes,
the first words we spoke,
walking along side by side,
in the colorful garden,
scent of blooms delighting us,
with cool breeze,
from the sprawling lush green paddy fields,
caressing and embracing both,
the videographer,
covering our features,
the entire landscape,
our lip movements,
whsipering laughs, enjoying,
each other's wits,
No?
the day of engagement,
sitting side by side,
exchanging rings,
our parents, relatives,
all guests watching,
the grand feast followed,
No?
The day I tied,
the nuptial knot on you,
smiling mischievous Krishna,
inside the sanctum,
in the glitter of lamps,
witnessing, showering,
blessings profusely on us,
the day,
the defining moment,
both became,
man and wife,
a milestone covered,
then tears trickling,
down your cheeks,
you waving hands,
to the beloved ones,
from inside the car,
to my abode,
No?
the moment,
the rare moment,
both looking into each,
other's eyes,
the moment,
the rare moment,
both one and same.
No?
--------The first bloom,
in our life,
the second bloom,
after a while,
life, love and harmony combined,
a symphony.
--------------The magician of all times,
the invincible ,
invisible time,
built an invisible wall,
somewhere,
some point on the way,
ahead.
Your joys, sorrows, secrets, your own.
My joys, sorrows, secrets, mine only,
distance of light years,
while sitting together,
shared we the,
same bed,
sans love,
and that simple mechanical transaction,
once in a while,
love lost,
harmony lost ,
actors par excellence,
we turned out to be,
infront of others,
whether are all partners,
at some point in life,
turn actors?
all these evolutions,
transformations,
pranks of,
the invincible,
the great invisible,
magician called Time?
