Searching

Searching

 

I am swept off by the floods  

I find no hope or grip to come out

of water, water all along my way

My hands are begging for a single minute rest

My lungs are praying for a little bit of air

It is pulling me in it’s speed and in it’s way

My stomach is burning with hunger

and eyes are drooping in exertion

 

Nothing before my eyes except water

A dead body of ass is moving beore me

My hands are saying thanks to Him

for sending it to hold on to it for a moment

I lost my consciousness before the arrival of rescue team

They tied me in a rope and pulled me in to a boat

it is a shore where I have been kept

There My Mother smiles as the rays of Sun

told me How safe is the shore and land?

 

Still I am searching

a hold or grip to come out from this life

Will that ass come for my rescue

Can I reach His hands to reach the shore?
