The WhatsApp Grasp

The WhatsApp Grasp

A Poem by Mohit Gautam
"

Once was a time, when boys used to stalk their teenage crush from school to market. Time changed and the ways too. Here, I present the suffering of them during the age of WhatsApp

"
Waiting for You,
Staring your Name
Mender, the You,
Of my heart that is lame

And at an instant,
Appears online
Below your name ,
Which was last seen
At exact nine
Thumb,right and left,
Began to hop, in a rhyme
Suffering from hunger,
To read,"What's up! My Sunshine"

My crush, that gave that clutch
I typed, " Missed you so much"
They were tapping
More and more,
Intend to have no shore
Then, marching soldiers freezed
All of sudden
They realised,
'Online' was then hidden

Hands,the statue and Bipolar, the mind
Hopping the thumb on backspace,
To get it all rewined
The virtual world with one-sided gasp
Your obsession and the Whatsapp grasp

And again,
Waiting for You,
Staring your Name
Mender, the You
Of my heart that is lame
