The rainy evening

It was the same rainy evening,
With lightening engulfing,
The only sound of raindrops pouring,
My heart went aflutter,
Missed a beat
As I stumbled upon the pages,
Unturned,untouched.....for a long time since
Our first chanced meet
The petals bookmarked your favourite piece
Of the poem, beautiful like our acquaintance
The lines weaving back memories
Of the moments created together
To be cherished forever !

It was the same rainy evening
That we embarked on journeys separately
Traversed through constellations of emotions
With you, it would have been different, though
(sigh),The hourglass completes a full circle,
The remnants marking wrinkles around my eyes
They still wait for you......
The precious memories I hold tight
Amidst the yellowed pages of black and white
Unturned, untouched by the wheels of time.
