Unspoken Soul
UNSPOKEN SOUL
She was all lost; fantasized a world
On the bitumen, none resembled her
Binnacles kept empty; let gusty waves guide her
Bid goodbye to a silent night under the mistletoe ; scrounging for serendipity
Stars were callous ; she- an embodiment of callowness , distracted by camellia could not find a way out of her perplexity
Deranged by the deathly silence, she hurried down the rails
Nothing more than a lost shadow, catching her own steps
Oblivion to the dogma-‘’It was all between mirrors, she was walking.’’
Ecstatically held a door; optimism would fail soon
Concussion in mind took a brutal turn
Damsel in distress, lost the sight of the shore
Once again journey to end
Defiant; stood in an apposite way
Masts were low, no camellia this time
Envisaged…..red horizon covered the ocean, no sign of life
Dismayed; developed an aversion towards the scenery
Cried hard, but what could be heard above the dead soul was just –“SILENCE”.
