Waiting To See A Daybreak Poem by Nikhat Bano

Waiting To See A Daybreak

Rating: 4.8


Standing alone at one end of the street
Is nerve wrecking;
Staring from nowhere to nothingness
Chills my spine.
It seems the sky and the earth has slept
Together with the lanes;
Those far fetched dreams have evaded me
Even slept are my destinations.
Time surrenders, day surrenders,
Night surrenders;
I stare nonchalantly at the burning lights
Of the city streets wanderers.
When the nemesis decides to intervene
Cosmos surrenders;
And when the fortune plays its flute
The last is the front runner.



I'll keep wandering on the streets
With my head held high;
To see every dark cloud with a silver lining
And a rising sun after this night.

Staring from nowhere to nothingness Chills my spine.... So sad and challenging but there is hope- every dark cloud with a silver lining. Thanks.

You have caught me right. While writing I was unwilling to remove the element of hope from desperation surrounding me. Thanks for reading!
