Photograph at the Lodhi Gardens
Deepankar KhiwaniPhotograph at the Lodhi Gardens
I have that snapshot in my album still –
That pale blue sky, which doesn’t really tell
How hot it was and how you fell quite ill:
You held a book, and smiled hard to look well.
I wasn’t posing then, but now I find
This photograph shows more of me than of you:
My eyes drawn to the ruined tomb behind,
I shot you less in focus than we knew.
