The Quiet Exit

In the Colour of November: A Poetry Series

Maybe this time we will part ways. who knows? Writing is a whole different thing from publishing. Sometimes you write, sometimes you share what you wrote and sometimes you just burn whatever you wrote. This new poetry series falls in the second category as i wrote it while telling my mind that it's the last chapter that i must put out and add a period in the story. I wrote these because they were meant to be shared as a way to let the ink of my pen fly away in form of texts on internet web pages because that way i'll be free and i won't have to keep these with me. This new and possibly final piece of work by me is called "In the Colour of November". 
The reason i chose to call it that was a small idea that i had based on a short film script i wrote called "The Art Room" but at that time, the title sounded a bit cringe. So i came up with something else and this is what that title was. As i kept digging in my dairy entries, i came across a common pattern that is the month of november lore. It's more like a curse and i'm nothing but scared every time November comes around. You never know what might happen to you next. This month holds the memories of a loved one who died, a friend who betrayed me, a new beginning and its ending (it was fleeting), memories of getting deserted and a lot more than what i can put into words. This month makes me suffer from melancholic fever and everything appears to be obscured by fog. In conclusion, its color is haunting not because of the fog and cold but because of the painful memories it carries.
