Atmospheric Pressure

It’s raining outside I can see on my window panes Rain droplets slide Inside seemingly dry eyes something triggers rains Memories are cruel They don’t spare O agonizing thoughts! Do not fuel the flame And waste the gems rare The storm has been building for ages I know The despair left no trace of hope’s glow I wore a smiling face just for show O unwelcome guest! I bid you to go Why should I remember the haunting moments? Why should I recollect the heart wrenching times? Where are the images that heart enchants? Where is the melody with rhythm and rhymes? Go, go, go O clouds of despair With your deafening noise of lightning and thunder Lend me your ears and let me declare I fight aggression, I do not surrender I can see on my window panes rain droplets glide Alone in this dreary night and no one by my side The thundering clouds with menacing deafening pride O my restless soul the worldly rules abide Karachi, Dec. 27, 2012
