Analysis of The photograph.
I went to a forest alone
and set up a camp
to stay there for few days.
My intention was to keep myself away,
from any social and family tention
as I was already perturbed.
At night inside the camp,
under a fluorescent light,
couching on an armchair,
i was reading a book.
Suddenly I found a photo card,
from inside the book,
where I was standing beside you
and both we were looking very happy.
I lost myself in the past.
I lost myself in the old memories.
When two tear drops fell on the card,
only then I found myself.
You left me only few memories.
When I stayed with others,
then only I found you,
in the sky among the stars.
But here I found you,
close,very close to me
as if you were always with me.
After fewdays when I returned
to my civil life,
again I found you at distance.
