Numb

Unlike waves,

My life never rose again after it crashed down.

Coiled up in the corner of the dingy room,

I stare at my surrounding.

A rodent sniffs my flesh,

Wondering what is the difference between me and rest of the inanimate garbage.

Frustrated and mad,

I was no less than a wild animal.

Manhandled and assaulted by Fate,

I endured it all till the threshold level.

Broken and numb at heart,

I ran away.

Lying here in the midst of trash,

I can see through my discarded life.

Having hurt my loved ones with my venomous words,

I let the Guilt to punish my heart.

Scared to close my eyes,

I lack the courage to confront the images of my distraught parents.

Hoping that this is my last prayer,

I ask Him to whisper my message to my mummy and papa-“I love you”. 

Fought & Dead

Sharing my heart with none

I tread the path of life all alone

Day turns into night

Trying hard not to give up the will to fight

Carrying on with the chores that’s mundane

I strive hard not to be insane

With the solace that it’s never too late

I wake up every day to change my fate

Lost in an inexplicable trance

Life is being spent in an excruciating dance

Tune and stage set by the ultimate Puppeteer

He is also known as the supreme Creator

Mercilessly nailed to the pillory

I still believed in His Glory

How long will I have to bear this assault?

What is my fault?

Barren of wish and desire

Am all set to be engulfed by the fire

Smeared across the cheeks of Earth

My ashes will be a keepsake of His biased wrath
