When the dawn of a new day
Brings to you old thoughts,
When the darkness of the night
Makes you dread the world,
...
Darkness! Surround me,
Let your silence bathe every pore of my body,
Let the breeze pass
Sending quivers through my being.
...
Lake water lap
At the feet of a tired lone boy,
Staring with gloomy eyes
As the ripples rise from the slimy waters
...
Beyond the battered trees,
Across the sun burnt path,
Amidst leaves of grass.
I lay face down upon my hand,
...
Flooded with love
My lips floated and tossed
Words stabbed the silence
Rung in the corridors of my mind
...
If her name were writ on paper
I would have torn it,
If her name were writ on water
I would have lost it,
...
She led a silent revolution
With her tears.
Sitting alone in the sylvan gloom
Nature had failed
...
1
O water drops
falling from the leaves
How I envy thee.
...
Worn out moon beams
Lift the veil of darkness
Over this deserted hut,
Voices of the inmates now and then
...
