I May Not Return by Rajnish Mishra

No, I may not return ever.
Yes, that’s destiny, 
self-scripted,
inflicted.
Had I known,
written the script, 
contemplated The end 
of the road less travelled? 
Had I, ever?
Past is not a place
to revisit.
Past is not a phase
to re-live.
Past is not a page 
to rewrite.
Past is past; 
the slippery sand 
that slips dryly
From between the fingers,
is lost,
Is gone.
