whispered

you took me by the hand,
i shivered
the cold had tempted us with passions of unknown
what we felt then was not a misery


i lost your grip,
intentionally
love was never there to cheer
the jeopardy was not mine for ask
i ran and ate the light of guidance,
empty


sought for hunger,
you tried hard to have a grab on me
tricks were managed
but i did not satisfy your unimaginable puzzled mind
and that i intended to sail
not to see you,
not to see the water i have been frightened of,
not to feel,


i ought to be unleashed from gyves i had been wearing
