The GraveyardMost of the steps,Just turn back. Breathing a sigh of relief And forgetting its existence Wise men have put forth It's a place haunted by ghosts And it's sinful even to talk. The lilies besides your grave, Too have lost their fragrance. As a multi faceted life Lies caged in a 2D photograph. Sometimes I too feel lost, In this eerie of silence Wondering, Am I hiding, From truth of life Misguided by false illusions? But how could I, Ever be so rude To leave you all alone, In hands of fate I promised you happiness For all of your life Feeling helpless now, As the only comfort to you, The coarse pebbles Sprinkled under the grave. Most of the promises like, Words lost in time But as I sit besides Your grave, I promise, I'll never let memories fade. Death is not the parting, Nor is it the end, Maybe it's a sheet of Eternal love, Covering the void of time, Embracing us. |
