Tides of Darkness

Sitting beneath the wind, I shed
In the reminiscence, I pled

Shadows fill my empty heart
Tethered, searches a new start

Drops of emotions fall
Expectations were so tall

For blind faith I wore
Only to listen 'No more'

I longed a bright shooting star
Oblivious; my heart got the deepest scar

Retrieving that first time we met
Promises and only promises I see are unkept

Change brutally ate us
Inevitable as it is, gave muss

With music I live
Emanating olive

To the darkness I croon
Don't leave me so soon

As the days pass by
I look at my empty sky

In this search of bling, what if I go blind
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?


















*****************

Choice is what she had
Chose to take away my clad
To her, I say no more
For one day, she'll get my core.

Thanks a ton Ridhima. It's a sad poem in a sad mood, but you just vanquished my despondence transiently. :)

Really nice Rachit,

Pray, I truly for thee,
what is lost, knows not she

And there will be, a plea
that your sorrow, shall flee

Of your gloom, you won't be free
until you get back, your glee
