Sunset of my Life: Part-I

i watched the sunset
sitting on the roof, i didn't know which direction i should look to
i was scared and cried regretful tears the whole night
my heart was beating like crazy, that's when it all began
i never learnt to surrender and abandon myself
but i had to, i was forced to
it was beyond control, my skin was burning
and the ghosts wouldn't leave me alone, even in dreams
nights and days both turned dark
and since then i'm waiting for a sunrise.
