Hey,
Let's get out of here
Let's get out of here to a faroff land
Not some exotic country but maybe to Russia, Japan or even Uganda
Let's take off one day and meet midair as strangers
Let's be co-passengers and introduce ourselves
Let's say cheers to wine and laugh over the crappy airline food
Let's giggle like kids over the choice of movies
And once at the destination, let's pick an Ok motel
Dumb our luggages and get out to the street
Let's explore the nook and corner
The not tourist places, the infamous alleys, not so popular restaurants and downright libraries
Let's drink cheap whisky
Let's sing and dance to nonsense music until our legs wobble and voice coarse
Let's walk back drunk at wee hours and kiss out loud
Let's confuse lust over love and hold hands
Let's sleep off whispering inaudible nothing's and cuddling each other
Let's sleep through the morning rays and
When we wake up in the afternoon
Let's repeat
Let's repeat the same routine
With different alleys, restaurants, bars and libraries
Let's repeat until it's time to go
To return to the world we belong
Where we are labeled as husband and wife
Or as lovers or as girlfriend and boyfriend
Or as perfect strangers
But only ....
Until next time.
This is brilliant! It was like reading my inner wishes. Oh, each line is spectacular, Sheethal <3

Beautiful Poem! I don't know if you are familiar with Marathi theater, but there was a play on similar lines that I saw long back. Very evocative
ReplyDeleteYour poem urges me to do something, small or big, doesn't matter. all that matter is, Let's Do Something! :)
ReplyDeleteWow i liked the sound and feel of it. It has always been my dream to experience such things. Slide away from this mechanical life for a while and live life to the fullest. Wonderful poem indeed!!
ReplyDeleteNice poem Sheetal... Straight from the heart and touching the heart.
ReplyDeleteSounds exactly like a plan in my head. Let's repeat is indeed my favorite.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. Love and freedom can be experienced best when it doesn't get bound by relationships and restrictions. Loved it!
ReplyDeleteLovely! I write poetry too. Great sense of freedom you've evoked, with a gentle return to reality. Like the repetitive rhythm of Let's.
ReplyDeleteOh this is so dreamy, make-believe and love loaded. Enjoyed your lyrical style of writing.
