THE AFTERMATH

I cannot take this separation.
It debilitates me everyday.
Whenever I confront the mirror,
my mood turns grey.

Till a few days ago I used to
revel in, us being together.
But now, such a phase in life,
we cannot even see each other.

I glance through the past photographs
and shed many a tear.
The reason for us parting ways,
still remains unclear.

I blame myself and my antics,
which has put us in such a situation.
You distanced yourself from me,
upon my persuation.

Whenever I stroke my head,
I feel your absence there.
Please forgive me, for i have sinned,
Oh ! My luscious hair !!

The devil inside me had spoken,
I just followed what he said,
the day when I took the lustrous blade
and tonsured my egg-shaped head !!
