It’s amazing to see, how the world
changes around you!
Where there was laughter, hope, peace and content,
Now stands a desolate island of isolated souls.
Moments of happiness beckons me from somewhere
I ran bare-footed only to find despair.
I halted, took a pause, to see if bliss was around;
But all I found was darkness, humming a lullaby profound!
The tune was
melancholy and the words mournful,
Of shattered dreams,
sorrow and bête noir
I stood their frozen,
hoping to find solace
But then I was woken
up by melodies of stolen grace.
I halted, took a
pause, yet again to look around
But all I found was
darkness, where I was left confound.
I cried aloud, but no,
there wasn't anyone to help!
I realized I was left
alone to travel across my way.
It was painful at the
start, to realize the tainted truth
Of loneliness, disdain
and grotesque rectitude!
There was anguish at
first, but later it disappeared
With bespattered soul
I ran, to sail beyond light years.
