The night after the storm.

-->

Dreams buried in hinges

Wounded forever and frayed.

The night after the storm

I perished in the stillness of your stare

‘We were’ a moment go

And after this storm, the lullness

Defies our existence.

I burnt in thy eyes

I screeched in your soul.

An incomplete poetry was born

When I passed away in your ambers cold.

For let them not be tears

But rain that left a heart ship wrecked.

For let this night not be the last of our life.

Let this night last forever

As we kiss each other goodbye.

Stillness before and stillness after.

Sun-kissed evenings, ash-burnt later.

I pick up the pearls

And walk on the ruins of our dreams

As I watch you walk away.

The memory, distinct and clear.

The night was flamed with fire

I wept, clinging to the flames

That set me ablaze

I beheld your departure

Burnt in that night after the storm

As I waved you

“Goodbye..Goodbye..”
