Dark Room Poem by Tanveer Sharma

I was Hurt
I was in Pain
My trust was rusted
I believed blindly
& I was proved blind
I was waiting
But it was useless
I was crying
But no-one cared
I was still in a hope
unfortunately, rupturing hopes
Those memories
spoiled my happiness
fired my blissfulness
Didn't know what to do
Didn't know what not to do
I just entered into the room
Room that full of darkness
Closed it from inside
so tightly it was.

One day some one knocked
knocked the door again
I didn't open
One more knock
more louder was sound
I opened the door
& I was quiet
Someone entered inside
To accompany me in the dark
in my life to bring bright spark
To Hold me Tightly
I didn't want to trust again
as I was broken
I was scared
Didn't want to die again
the death of feelings
& I was afraid
for the rebirth of pain
Pain that can happen again
don't want to die by trusting again.

I shouted and cried
Go away and leave me alone
Don't bother me, Don't Hold me
For me you will always be unknown
No need to come closer
As affection, feelings & trust are shredded
And far away my soul is gone
I pushed him out
From the House of Darkness
where me and my loneliness resides
And Rain of tears accompanied me
& Fragrance of agony was with me
Door of the house was knocked again
I didn't open and locked it with a heavy chain
Someone was waiting outside
But I didn't care
I came back into my room
to sleep in the darkness forever
knocking was so louder and continuous
But I opened the door - never.
