A Highlighter

Words…soft and gentle words
 Pour on like a humming voice
 With a forgotten melancholic tune
 Like a softer lullaby on a wild dune.
 
 They float on in my realm of imagination.
 Make me shiver and shake through salvation. 
 Is it the beginning, or is it ending, once and for all?
 Not able to wipe the fogs and mist, too abstract a call.
 
 I am holding a highlighter, I intend this again after a while
 To stop those flowing words before vanishing with a smile. 
 Grip those words, I love them the most amongst all  I possess! 
 And highlight that colorful sadness on these dead- white pages.
