I Abode Alone! Poem by Kumar Parashar

Lonely and alone, what my life has become
Shattered and broke, the day is to come
Dark are the days and darker the nights
Lonely and alone, lonely are these dark midnights

The bright of sun has darkened my sight
My vision insipid, arid and morbid my light
Greens taunts, love flaunts and I degrade
In shades darkened inside, aches escalade.

Drowning in waters of frowning stings
The sunshine shines no more on my ceilings
Like an endless life of a lifeless breath
I live without a life in the air of death

The sole purpose of my soul, the soul mate
Deserts me away from my very own fate
And I live on with a face strong, so long
Long and lasting my prong of hopes in a song

They say time heals but it scrapes my lesion
With every second I run towards arson
Acid rains on me, preventing any blood clot
They say time heals, but alas, it did not! !

Once mine is what, no longer in my reach
The space between is a blood sucking leech
In time and space bound world, I look around
With no escape, no escalade, I go down

People may say many, no body to relate
They state and collate, thus they abate
What happened? You knew me, why believe
Strangers don't know me, lies and deceive

I will smile for I will never share the pain
I will live but this won't happen again
The feels will be mine to keep and lie
For the reals will go with me to die

I will smile at those unfulfilled dreams
Shattered homes and broken scenes
I will smile to watch you go, though you may never know
Lonely and alone I be, lonely and alone I abode…
