Deserted Window

In darkness absolute I sit
Amidst thousands of waxy candles lit.
My heart beat echoes here and ends
Whispers emerge, strike and bend.

Tik-tok-tik the time rattles
Sh-Shh eternal silent battles
Mournful breeze touching my skin
A fish floating without a fin.

A reservoir of dreams, everyday flood away
Glee and grin Oh! a fantasy bay.
Cursed wealth of tears is all what I own
I am a weed along with a fertile crop sown.

I peep through my window of hopes lost.
pristine air that blew once now stand as polluted frost
I Wait for sunshine for this brightly lit place of no spark.
Its the window of an old age home and here its all dark!!!
