A dance amidst another
From the heights
I saw
Hitting the leaves
lush and green,
the drops tippered
As I saw them hold-
Fingers enticing
Their warmth gripped
each other, as-
the rain dripped on-
A foggy rain,
and love, pristine.
The wet slowed pace,
as I saw them vanish
Into the dark,
untold.
As I enter its hollow,
I feel a certain ache
Slipping, overblown
-
The calm entices,
Tranquillising me
-
As my gaze
Shifts into the hollow
Approaches the void, vacant
-
The silence suffuses
Puts me in
A realm of thoughtlessness
-
A place dark, void,
Un-wilted yet
-
I find life, verity,
In the silence
More than the chaos
-
For the silence suffuses,
Puts me in
A realm of peace.
A Note
Snooze narrates the takeover sleep has on our emotions, pain and sorrow. Of how one experiences the most intense of such thoughts when falling asleep, but slips into the place of ultimate silence soon later. It emphasises on how sleep is a moment of pause in our lives, an essential one.
I don’t feel like staying apart
It slips my hand and retires me hollow
Into the depths of the darkness
As the cold grips my heart
Freezing it onto the shallows of darkness
Into the depths of the darkness
It makes me uncertain, restless
I see a fractured self
Awaiting someone to fix it
Giving me enough love to warm my heart
Into the depths of the darkness
I find myself wounded
Bleeding wounds of the distance
That once never was
For what once was
A gleaming ray of the bright
Into the depths of the darkness
I lay barren
For I can no more
Weather the light
