For Manik
Magic Manik has gone
left without a goodbye
without a kiss
just SMS’s
news of bliss
from Singapore
Returning next week?
Such a sense of loss
in Colombo
what do I do now?
how do I move on?
can’t imagine life
without him.
His irrepressible smile
indomitable spirit
the unconditional love
conspicuous, in this
empty city
So, the cell phone
(his photo saved as wallpaper)
messages – to scroll, to read.
an intense longing
to have him back.
To fly with
fingers snapping
head shaking
feet grooving,
Magic Manik
A Light has Gone Out
vinyaki-blue
like what you see?
