Trespassers

Abandon this place...

It's a no man's land...

Trespassing would fail...

As you could never leave...

All it appears is hazy...

The fog appears never to leave...

How will you find your way...

In this barren world unseen...

Some torn paintings...

Across broken walls...

The paint of which...

Is damp and cold...

Tired windows peeping out...

The doors hold some "nothings" inside...

The ceiling is full of stars of dreams...

Which hide behind cobwebs...ripped!

The dusty tables gaze at shadows...

Of books that lie at million truths...

The floor holding walls upright...

Was playfully slippery once upon a time...

Now lies beneath...

Dust of time...

Some riddles across the walls...

Have become the pictures of the lost...

Toys wrapped in papers of dust...

Lie scattered like the early morning mist...

You'll never get anything here...

But you cannot leave without a tear...

Trapped whispers in hinges of doors scream...

Lonely places are really very lonely...

They talk of shadows and the light...

But not about how and why...

Anonymous people have been living in this darkness...

And innumerable ran away frightened...

Many wanted to steal what's not theirs...

Ended up being stolen of their breaths here...

A far away dream 

Becomes a nightmare here...

It's this world that has 

Never been so mysteriously dangerous before..

Don't think of crossing the barriers...

You'll surely end up dead here.

Before I walk away...

Before I walk away....let me tell you ....why your eyes distracted me....

It were like my dreams shined....in your eyes like a stream.....

Your heartbeat I could recognise....from a crowd of so many....

Yet my heart didn't understand.... I was not your dream....

So let my heart go free....Of your hands let me flee...

Even though I know...It would take a lifetime for me...

To forget you and restrain...

My heart from loving you again and again....

So I walk alone....along with me your memories....

Until the dawn rises again...am shattered, I Am weak....

To be strong is ....not to hide what...makes you blind in lights....

To be weak is...not to accept....what makes you go on your knees....

In darkness....I crush my dreams....

In lights.....I smile like a queen....

Distinguished this long ago...

Love is not a song....

That everyone can sing....

It's tune would....always change with...every scream...

So close your eyes....that I may not find....

My single dream in your eyes....

So close your lips...

That I may not find ...my smiles in them....

Turn around and run away....I can't stay to call you mine.....

So I say a little prayer....That I may not ...

Never be there....

Where you would find me and my dreams....

Until the dusk melts into the dark night....

I would walk away.... from you and your face.

The Day will follow.....

The morning sun on its way.....
Climbs up and there it stays.....

How boring is to wait alone.....
To see all going home....

The noon got shunned away.....
The orange, yellow light died at bay.....

What made it, casted a spell.....
And down went the orange jewel....



The shades of clouds that made no sound......
Moved as if in a jungle , moves a hound.....

The prey is hidden well in the cave.....
And the predator is on its way......



Shadows approach and lay on the ground.....
Knowing well, below they will be found.....

When the darkness overtakes....
It will be felt in every place.....



But it's still time for eyes to close.....
Put off the lights and close the doors....

The stars begin to twinkle their smiles.....
And the sky looks like a beautiful bride.....



The silence singing its song to the ears.....
You don't notice, yet so near.....

Overtaking your tired body and soul....

Dreaming with eyes closed......



And all is this....
The day will follow every night.....
And it never does rest in quiet....
