Subimal Sinha-Roy Poet Free verse

Rising From the Cloud

Rising from the static cloud opaque
The face transparent takes a form melancholic
Drenched by the melting dark cloud
Showering shredded memories not yet dead
The eyes mystically closed by eyelashes woven
Dreaming the dreams not yet broken
The hair made up with hope and care
Made the face for a while a thing of desire
Now entangled in knotted rope of despair
Flies dishevelled uncontrolled reaching nowhere
Blown by the winds of neglect and rejection
The sensuous moist lips
Vibrant with warm surrender once
Now half-parted dry and crumpled
Frozen in the air of cold discard
Tell the eyes in waning quiver :
Hold the tears
Don’t let the dreams swim away
Hold the tears
Till I disappear in the cloud again.
