Photographs

Every picture I take, is a failed attempt
at sharing an overwhelming emotion
felt in that moment.

There, in that moment,
was a potent feeling,
a fragrance,
a sensation,
a story,
that I want to convey,
but now remains ungrasped & lost forever.

All that I have left are pictures,
and a promise I took from these mountains,
that are the address of my soul.

That if God wills, they will call me home again soon.

Darjeeling, you beauty, thank you for the memories!
