With Like One That Got Lost
We are no longer gossiping beside a brimming river
The cold within us gradually turns to ice
Forgetting humanity, we live insside the walls of invisibility
We fear to face hautines of our eyes
We go on like the ones we lost for good
Never been we want to know humility of our surrounding
Nor we listen the call of our soul
We've uprooted our heritage
What happened to us, why?
We've pinned time cruelly at a point with cork
The pure air of feeling better has shaken our hearts,
our minds yet we're stagnant .
when rains of love and compassion shower relentlessly
on the barren land of heart
We drench ourselves but never feel warmth
within us.
We are metamorphosed into beasts
Gradually the shadow merges with the ground.
The sun comes and leans against the window
and stops there as if a rock incarnation
You are now no more you, I am lost in lust
The cold wind of outburst breathing
Still waves the curtains of prehistoric wait
We no longer feel anyone
in a very, very lonely way! ¦
