I am quiet too often
like the empty hallways,
humming a song already forgotten
with a tilting toe towards the sun
a sigh: pink fingers dipped in pain
a sigh: pink fingers dipped in hallucination
there is a staircase now
falling beneath my parting head
half towards left,
half towards right
days whistling on sea waves
about my country in flames,
about my city in illusions
watching a cloud
things fall under the feet now
a complete loss of sense
tiny leaflets fluttering
green songs that reflect nothing.
the survival becomes a pungent smell often
with absent glares
and a blue sea that is a part of my dream.
My poetry collection is receiving all the love for which I am truly thankful to each one who supported it. I produced my book out of pain, love, despair. Hope you like it too. Links can be checked out here-

“A sigh…” ā¤ļøāØ
Which is what I tend to do, in admiration: when reading your beautiful work.

in the foyer
the hall
of shame
and fame
such a thing
as blame
point no fingers
and let not linger
doubt
in the silver lining
of today
