Waves

We were somehow The most beautiful Thing together. Our reflection Clearer than any other In the mirror That the lake held. But just like a stone She came Into the lake Distorting the reflections Blurring the dreams. We were like the waves, Waves that Always make their way Back to the shores No matter how far they go away. No matter how stormy they turn. But just like a Fiery rain she came, Drying up the oceans We sailed in. Making the waves disappear. Watching us drowning, Drowning into the Setting sun. -Vipin Pratap
