On Reading..

Often we connect with the words that another author has penned down. Its because somewhere deep down we feel the same.

That's why we love them so much and relate to them. They become more than just words and  turn into our feelings. Somehow, on reading, we connect :)

When I read such a verse, 

That touches my heart,

And strikes a chord within.

For my poetry resounds

In their words,

Just like my words would have felt.

I wonder at times,

If they felt lost.

If they too were lonely and alone.

Like my state is now,

Of bleeding words,

From wounds that lie below.
