With Like One That Got Lost

We are no longer gossiping beside a brimming river 
The cold within us gradually turns to ice 
Forgetting humanity, we live insside the walls of invisibility 
We fear to face hautines of our eyes 
We go on like the ones we lost for good 
Never been we want to know humility of our surrounding 
Nor we listen the call of our soul 
We've uprooted our heritage 
What happened to us, why? 

We've pinned time cruelly at a point with cork 
The pure air of feeling better has shaken our hearts, 
our minds yet we're stagnant .
when rains of love and compassion shower relentlessly 
on the barren land of heart 
We drench ourselves but never feel warmth 
within us. 
We are metamorphosed into beasts 
Gradually the shadow merges with the ground. 
The sun comes and leans against the window 
and stops there as if a rock incarnation 

You are now no more you, I am lost in lust
The cold wind of outburst breathing
Still waves the curtains of prehistoric wait 
We no longer feel anyone 
in a very, very lonely way! ¦
