Weariness

What if The stars suddenly shuddered And you, God Decided to play? What if You chose to disguise Yourself And come to Earth As anything You would want to? What if You would come For me, To show me the way Leading to Your abode? Of course, I would keep it a secret I would disclose it not To the rest of the world As Everyone has despair loaded On their consciousness And everyone Lives Merely because they have been told They have to! Why I am tired The burden of having to carry my own cross Is getting too heavy My arms hurt The tears trickling down my face Crease my skin And my feet are simply trying To pretend That they still want to walk on! Would You come As the full moon displays itself Bold and majestic? Or when the summer breeze Is soothing enough As to tingle my lips into a smile? Or would you come When the night paints its own enchantment For itself to enjoy, Then when the night creatures sing and dance Then when grass morph into fairies Then when stars shed off their blinding mask Then when I, Will be mindless of what I leave behind Seeking solely to follow you Blindly And even more submissively Than lovers do with their beloved! My sentence must be really gruesome That You never allow me to play with You Leaving me, Stranded, In a life which I feel not is mine! Why, I remain the words that You have whispered Eons ago! At least, I try to be so As much as I can! I remain the principles that You have set Ages before When the world was supposed to be a better place! I remain the humanity that You have made me with Even if I make it a must not to be trampled on! Yet, Living feels like being lost at sea With water all around and Not being able to drink one single drop! Come, Please do, I yearn for a glimpse of You I yearn to read a poem to You I yearn to play games with You Why, I yearn to hold Your hand And to see of that Which You have promised in those books of holiness!
