Bus to Kerala

It was full
of strangers.plumpy and snoring

Gazing outside the big glass window
amidst the slight fog
I waited.

I waited for HER
Honking trucks passed
Breaking the sound of silence

Orion and dog star send signals
"Probably your friend slept"
wearing the cloud cover

I am too tired
Still waiting for HER

You might have seen your moon tonight
Mine is missing from past fortnight....
