Union

The broken lover, 
Out of grief sits scribbling,
Her name on the beach-

Persistent, till the sea
Remembers who she is.

In the middle of the ocean,
From around, another
Part of the world.

Another lonely name,
Finds this one and now
There's a new affair.

The onslaught of the
Saline water that often
Subsumes things-

Has made an exception
To write a new story
And named it as rain.
