The Wall

I waited to see  My reflection in you  My eagerness reached the sky.  As the day passes Its strength spreads to the universe.    Days passed as the seconds.  Neither I saw  The spread of my reflection  To the world  Nor I saw it in your eyes.    You never knew me  And never tried for that.  The only thing you had  Is the shapeless, figure less   Shadow of mine.    I will never say  That you do nothing You do a lot.  You cover me  You wrapped my personality.  As if the ashes covers the cinder  Though I persisted to glow  You showered as rain on me.    You are always  A painful fence for me  You prevent my journey  You closed  The world of a free bird  Before me  That always awaited for  My arrival.    I see the increase In your force of compress  Like the destructive flood. . But I can’t be  A  person without words.  I can’t be action less.  I can’t be vision less.  I am not suppose  To end my life in between you,  The walls.  I have to reach  The heart of the living spirit  And have to burnish  Everything around me.
