The Most Painful Word

THE MOST PAINFUL WORD Words in voices, words in noises, Words of silence, waiting for choices, Still I’m searching for words….. A word to speak out the language of pain, A word to reveal the tears hidden in rain, A word to express sleepless nights in bed, A word to show you that I was insane, But where the hell words have gone? Are they frightened from this painful moan? The moans of a lone heart, the moans of broken dreams, Moans waving in angst, moans compelled to scream, I’m searching heart out, melting this dark cloud, Outflanked by words but unable to sought, Words are escaping, challenging for a chase, I’m running but words everywhere, which should I gaze? Yeah, snatched a word from this mob, It has painless tears, so searching for new opt, Now caught the LONELINESS, pain & tears all it means, But it’s neither the reason for it nor the origin, So I freed it indeed followed, It is moving to its home though a shining road, Sky-high buildings even bigger than dreams, Winds of ecstasy & joy leaving behind mystic scenes, I was lost in fantasy when loneliness knocked a door, A beyond imagination, beautiful word appeared on the floor, I was stunned, this can’t be the home of loneliness, Suddenly saw that word hiding sorrow behind bliss, Tears were falling, the word was in deep pain, Pretending to be smiling but drops were slopping again & again, Soon I realized, this was the word I was searching for, The word worshiped as God, the word called LOVE……
