Anger is a hydra -headed demon
A demon beating its furious wings
a volcano belching out fiery lava
a gloomy sky cracking thunders
...
I was lying under the heap of bricks
One two, ten, fifty, hundred, thousands...
I could not cry any more
They all fell upon me one by one
...
I am lonely
Even though one cannot tell
I am reaching out
Why I don’t know
...
Dont know why I loved YOU
but its true I LOVED you.....
So much love for you in my heart
All the birds in the sky could not sing it out
...
But I Miss You Most When You Don’t Miss Me….
When the sky becomes crimson red
I miss u
when the apple turns red from green in Kashmir
