She and I were in a room.
She was in one corner and I was in another.
No words were moving between us.
Just a deep silence but nothing was there.
I didn’t know what she was thinking.
But I was imagining a train wobbling into a tunnel.
Many days have passed-by since that day.
Many shes have I encountered.
Still I have neither broken the silence nor narrowed the distance.
But with them intimate have I become
In my mind.
Every now and then I question myself.
Is it cowardice that stops me from going physical?
Am I a crazy with an outlandish obsession?
Have I chosen fantasy over reality, for the reality is unknown?
Questions are more, answers none.
But sometimes I feel
I may have decided to go mental over physical.
