It was 1 in the night and I had just finished my conference call, though sleep was beckoning me, I got in the mood of poetry and not wanting to lose that moment, I started writing. Of late, I find myself drawn towards Anna Akhmatova’s poems, which seem to convey a whole lot of meaning in a few words. Now, brevity has never been my forte but try I would ……
She lies intoxicated in those arms
Knows not what the world beholds
She seeks him in those eyes
Trying to break from the trance
She breathes in soft sighs
Mouths his name in sweet delight
She wonders about his restraint
Realizing her folly ,’Oh! It wasn’t him at all’

and thats why i said - i wont dig further ( refering to deeper emotions).
well...so much for the confusion. :)
