The Blue Ink.

I see you there:
Sitting on a chair.
Your eyes lost in thought,
Your mouth lost for words.

You are still as a showpiece.
You show not your emotions.
Yet your character reflects deepness,
Your demeanour pensiveness.
There is a pool of bitter memories
Surging through your mind,
And here you sit calmly
Relishing your wine.

I hear the thunder strike.
I see how the rain
Trips down your window pane.
I see the droplets beseech,
But I see you not succumb.
There is an air of despair;
Resonance of melancholy.
I look at your eyes,
And see myself.
When you lift your eyes;
I discern myself.

  1. I'd like to know, why The Blue Ink?

    Bdw, amazingly written. :) The last stanza...I loved it. Great job. Give me the explanation jaldi. :)

  2. The Blue Ink because it is used as a metaphor for rain here. The word blue reflects the mood of the scene and ink deepness. Actually I was keen on making an illustration related to this which would make things clearer, but... :P
    I will tell you what made me write this, but you got to give me your interpretation of it first! :p :D

    1. Okay. I shall. In a day or two. I like 'Blue Ink'. Because of what it represents. Gives a nice feel. :)
