It's An Illusion Poem by Gopikrishnan Nair

It's An Illusion

Rating: 5.0


You and I
We are not free.
You have imprisoned me
And I you.

We were in love
Once
But no longer
We left all that
Somewhere along the way

I have killed your dreams
And you mine.

We were young
Once
But no longer
We left all that
Somewhere along the way.

You and I
Were meant to be
Once
But no longer
It is too late to part ways

We too afraid
To step out of these dungeons
And face those dreams again.


We'll cling on to these chains
And lay to rest
The hopes of our foolish youth

In the same grave
We found for our love.

We'll cry for our future
When the other dies,
And for the young souls
Who hoped
Loved

And learnt to despair.
