Exhibition
Getting old is like getting disarmed.
Your possessions are suddenly
Taken away..
You are no more a weaponed soldier,
But an unarmed struggler
Life...! wasn't it a crazy party?
Was it not a frenzy festivity
with you in the middle.!
Wasn't it a celebration of racing
senses and intellect..!
Wasn't it a procession of sensuality?!
And excitement of inexplicable
Intellectual and spiritual consummations.
The festivity is ended.
Revelers left.
The ground is vacated and desolate.
Festival lights are eluding faint.
Darkness blanket the earth.
Alone are you in the dry emptiness.

Revelers left.
The ground is vacated and desolate.
Festival lights are eluding faint.
Darkness blanket the earth.
Alone are you in the dry emptiness.
Love is stripped off you,
You are old..!
Loving you is purposeless,
For, you possess nothing.
Needing you is meaningless,
You are an empty shell.
You are checked again,
As an old leather bag
For a surprise unnoticed coin
Before discarding.
Tired, tattered, roofless,
half blind and ruffled,
You still hide the fire in you.
A fire of love, desire,
And a need to belong.
You still hide the fire in you.
A fire of love, desire,
And a need to belong.
There is a silent, colorful
procession of memories,
that excites you,
And brings a smile on your lips,
And wetness in your eyes.
Now, you walk up to the distant gallery,
Where there is an exhibition,
A show of live memories.
Memories as old paintings
Exhibited for you..
Only for you..

Stop at each painting
Look at them,
Look at them,
relive, and experience.
Taking your own time..
Do not hurry.. You have time,
It's an exhibition for you...
Taking your own time..
Do not hurry.. You have time,
It's an exhibition for you...
It’s your own show for yourself.
You possess nothing else..
