Close my eyes
Tightly
So that no light would enter
Grasp my hair
Almost splitting them
May be the pain prevents
Hideous thoughts pouring in my head
A lump rises in my throat

It’s late in the night
I look through the window
I can see the skies
I see the stars shining faintly
Like the sparkle in your eyes
The fervor of the moonlight
Resembles that passion in them

It’s a calm and quiet
Summer evening
Sun sets beyond the trees
Darkness creeping
I am sitting on the bed sipping tea
Outside,
Kids are playing in the garden
Birds returning to nest
Remind me
Wherever you go – in the end
You turn to home
I walk out of the room
In the garden I see
Butterfly hovering
Silently and slowly
It will fall asleep at the twilight
Farther I step

The silence of this broken place
Is just too loud to bear
A death is imminent
A danger is near
This scary brewing silence
Engulfs my hopes
I am just quiet
I don’t want to cope
I don’t see a thing
All these riches, all of the bling
It will have effect
Looking through the darkness
Peeping through the quilt
I cry, I sob
I am dying in guilt
I had some illusions
I had some belief

I look around,
It’s all dark
In the room beside
People sleeping
Soft-sound-easy breathing
But I am up,
I am awake…
Its 12 o’clock
Staring into the darkness:
Searching a way out of it…
- my inner darkness though
Is more horrible
Than this impostor’
I feel hollow inside’
Like there is no ground beneath my feet
Surrounded by shattered hopes broken dreams

In the shadows of innocence
devil resides
in the heaven of earth
darkness abides
slow monotonous aimless strides
walk through the meadow
look in the eyes
eyes - without expression emotion and consideration
-stoned
looking at you, piercing your heart
grabbing it...drawing out
blood, veins and tears
where are you going?
heavens! this is too much to bear
everyday gloomy
