Long deep silence…
Then the sudden loneliness…
I opened my eyes slowly
Hoping for the bright day light
But instead my heart trembled
To see the same dark night.
Pain was immense
Now even hope made no sense
I wanted to shout aloud
But there was no one around.
My heart skipped a bit
But I still waited for
Time’s little hint.
Then minutes turn into hours
And hours to days,
Then again days to years,
And now I can only count
My countless tears…
But I still keep on waiting
May be for a kin…
With each passing day
Burning the self within.
Every day with the sunset
I kept hoping less
Life is a game of chess
And every step is just a guess.
And I am check mate
That’s all is the game of my fate
Then long deep silence
And still the loneliness prevails…
