Nights look

Saturday,11th May 2019

 

It keeps me awake

and puts everything at stake

I am not afraid of the snake

but can't accept poisonous cake

 

lie seems very sweet

when everything is greeted

with the joy and happiness

the glow shines on the face

 

I had no idea about the sad world

earlier so many stories were told

but I faced it in the real sense

this made me very much tense

 

I witnessed her death

with no easy breath

the mind faced troubled thoughts

I was unaware of and got caught

 

nights look barren

I remain desperately driven

loss of some dear ones drives you crazy

you are restless and have turned lazy now
