Diwali Confessions

Your silence pains me more
Than the maddening noise of bursting crackers
This hallow flamboyancy of happiness is bearable
Than the unexpressed pain of your separation

I imagine you sitting at your window
Looking curiously up to the sky
Brightly lit with frenzied fireworks
And wondering
When someone lit the million stars in sky
Whose love was being celebrated?
What meeting lit up the universe with million galaxies?
What eternal carnival is this that never ends?

I imagine you then think about us
Our maddening unbridled love
Our insatiable unquenchable passion
And smilingly shake your head in amazement
As you get all your answers
