INSIGHT<br />
By GUNA MORAN<br />
F<br />
or some reason<br />
you are upset with me<br />
for a couple of days<br />
Although I don’t know the reason<br />
I guess it right<br />
You haven’t spelled it out<br />
I too haven’t asked you<br />
We have taken opposite positions<br />
Silence is chatting between us<br />
Maybe the conversation is called<br />
the battle of nerves<br />
Bloodless<br />
without arms<br />
this is the most difficult battle<br />
On earth it is the best person<br />
who wins this battle again and again<br />
It is the one who ends this silent battle<br />
is ever defeated<br />
You want to be the winner<br />
Me too don’t want to be the loser<br />
So the distance between us is widening<br />
