Dedicated to the numbness of the chin…
The thousand trumpets beating down in the head,
With the hands betraying you
The words falling apart and the voice uncertain too,
I had heard of the brown bottle
When someone gave it to me in peace
With resistance, I snatched it away from him
Now, I know the price of it
Some one tells not to be heartless
When I try to erase my words, my thoughts
He ought to help me, because he is good at heart
Discarded from home, he finds home in us
And there is person named love,
That I have forgotten and he has left me too
With all the shivers in the lips and eyes
The white spots and the bright spots too
And the expectations mount all the time
With no escape this time
I hope someone learns the message, not the words
And keep their teeth behind the lips.
In the world of green
ReplyDeleteevery word seems pristine
like the daffodils unseen
dying to be plucked in pain.
