Sudden Rebukes

I was standing with my soul
My eyes were on the floor
It looks different……not as before
It was my respect, happiness, pride
Everything was sinking
I was trying to make them float
But the water was not listening to me
I tried convincing fishes
They were fond of water
They stood against me
Sorry I couldn’t handle
The wind was against me
I tried hard for getting
But the past glow is attracting me
I cannot overcome this way
I have to leave I have to forget
This is the only way
I could see up
