Karma Tonic: Chapter 26: Losing a Fall



An embryonic faith
Delving with time,
Vigour to capture
Beseeching a taste
Sun was loud,
Night was never a waste
Speaking of a story
The pages flew in haste.

Laughter to love, humour to hell
Chimes sang, dancers played
Mother smiled, children waved
Action-packed skids, cars to bet
Oh, the lyrics,
Oh the epilogue.

A pillow over a pillow
A slight shift of eyes
A squirming soul
A fear of losing the chapter
A fear of forgetting the characters
And,
A moment later: the tale just ended.

Just a kick in my heart, when I start with a book that affects my mind and heart, my mundane things, my belongings and my expressions: this one is for that few minute feeling when I am about to complete a tale in a book, in a series, in a film, in a real-life narration.
