In A City Without Lights Poem by Abhimanyu Raman

In a City
Without Lights
I walk
Hoping For Answers
to Come My way
None Do
Even So I Walk
Hoping For Something
To Carry me Away

I Look Up
The Sky Cries Grey
Tears Of Rain
Falling On My Face
My Face Upturned
Towards The Clouds
For I Know
She Suffers
My Pain Tonight
Dreams
Caught
Within The Amber Of Time
Come Back To Me
Tonight
However Close
My Reach Cannot Encompass

To Suffer So
I Cannot
Walk Alone
Anymore
Desperate
For Company
I Cry My Words
On Mouldy
Paper
Mad Beyond Raving
For Someone
To Hear My Voice
To See, To Feel
To Understand
The Tenderness
That has Left My Grasp
And The Insnanity
That Claims Its Place
