Sampath Kumar.
he’s searching
for her
who has gone missing
no message
no whisper
just poof, and she vanished
he checks his wrist
the love bracelet
that she had given seems
still warm
and smelling of her
but she is now nowhere
the tall trees seem to know
but are strangely quiet
the nocturnal chorus
of the crickets and cicadas reveal
where she lies
which he will never find.
