Tears

She looked at the Sun and
sighed. One more day was about to end.
‘He would come today,
surely. Has to?’
But she knew that she was
only trying to fool herself; he would never return.
Still she was not willing
to get rid of the hope that she had nurtured for last ten years.
She looked through the
window. The Sun had set. She was distracted by something that was sticking to
her withered hands.
She washed her hands,
repeatedly; but somehow was unable to cleanse them.
That irritated her.
She looked through the
window but everything appeared hazy.

Dear Arora,
ReplyDeleteThis picture seems to inspire a lot of separations. Her desperate hand washing makes me wonder if there's more to this than a mere loss of relationship. Nicely done.
Shalom,
Rochelle
thanks Rochelle
