Last Flight As I Get Low

The Last flight- as I get low





Glistening glass shattered
and smashed pieces laid on floor,
With the news of an accident
that made my twin soul bid good bye,
Eclipsed life to live forever
emotions and desires were cruelly denied,
Vast ocean of deep grief it was
as weightless I sank into my tears,
Dark gloomy clouds veiled my sky
those unending flushes of downpour.

Oh God ! What did you get out of the parting,
when fourteen years you had blessed me by ?
Oh God ! The wonderful creator,
why had you taken an avatar of a demon ?

It was bubbling me,
broken and hurt beyond any healing,
My vivid colours lending hues to deprived
faded into black, inked in glee,
Lost in deeper seas of infinite darkness
where not a single ray could lit,

Time ate me every bit by bit
as wheels of misfortune constantly spinned,
Ghosts danced before my eyes,
Depression pushed me further down,
My brimming angst knew no bounds 
as I embraced death to soul's last flight !
