Sojourn - Lake

Sojourn - Lake

A Poem by Raja
"

It is a compilation of several poems, rain, et al. Sometimes we are jubilant to find lost love, while sometimes we could not keep it for fear of missing it once again. �Sojourn� demonstrates the different phases of love one has encountered in life.

"
Lake
 
It was like any other evening,
People flocked handcuffed with other hands
With rejuvenating smiles, pretensions, agonies, and businesses
Merely all gathered to watch short films
Police tricked the lovers
To fetch something
And an endless fun to watch them running
With those security running after
We froze suddenly under the silhouette legibility
In such evening fires, we embraced, kissed, searched the fun
Like disciplined lovers
We never endeavored this before
Only, in a while of passion
We mastered
 
That was by the lake, a prohibited place
To sit, talk, dance, play, run, love, and see
 
We were there
We were the lake trotters!
 
“Let’s go
It’s already nine

Your parents are waiting for dinner”

I find this poem plays games with my memories of youth; well, rather teenage years. I remember love and kisses and fun we had as teenagers "hanging out" by the lake. I love the way this poem reminds me of the innocence of adolescence. Do you remember running from the 'cops' or at least hearing your friends telling you stories about it? lol...I do and they are often looked upon fondly from me.

Nice write
