Fifty million pores in the body and each wanted to absorb the light of love..
Like the 50 million stars in the sky that burn bright at the same time!
Or it just seem that they did,
Like the stars do!
Whereas many of them are already dead!
Long ago.
They can not light up any more.
They can't absorb any more.
Only the news will reach us much later.
Like, the telegram that at times reached later than the actual guests, in the 1980s.
Or the emails that got lost in the web and took years to reach.
Are we still allowed to mourn the loss?
Is it allowed to mourn the dead a hundred years after they have passed away?
Is that mourning still valid?
Like they mourn Hossein after 1400 years?
Is that allowed for us all?
May be you can mourn the passing away of love,
When you finally realise that it has passed you by.
It has passed away..
Long ago.
Like those starts hundreds of lightyears away.
You can..
Even when you start mourning in retrospect.
Feel free to mourn.
And then sit and think
At what exact point the pores of your body will close?
Those that opened to see as the eyes fell short..
One by one
All fifty million of them..
It takes time, after all.
To close.
To mourn.
