Forbidden

Being on the edge of a cliff..I see..

Lights from far ahead, trying to pierce through the devouring darkness

A sudden silence following a fatal fight

Between soul and life..

Is staring now at me with wide open eyes

And a blank face—

Just like a blinding darkness after dazzling starlight—

Just like a day suddenly changing into a night.

Thoughts obscured by clouds of hope,

Incessant desire for something untouchable-forbidden-

Forbidden by my angel of tears-healer of all pain,

Forbidden by my goddess of despair—

The asylum when I am in my darkest nightmare-

Forbidden by someone..Someone I can never name.

Forbidden it became...

My Unknown Imagination...??

As I linger in my own prison of a mind,

Engrossed in the sorrow that I left behind,

I did not hear the footsteps as you came –

Broken out of my trance—I entered another--

“Who are you?” I asked,” Do you have a name?”

The silhouette laughed carelessly and vanished in wisp of smoke---

The darkness grew dark as the magic broke.

I searched for it—like an insane,

In search of his sanity—

Desperate to see it again,

I found nothing but a fragrance of life left behind.

I felt as if the silent night was mocking my loneliness.

I found nobody, not even a trace

..And the night grew darker still…

But I’m waiting there…waiting all along..

Just to see you…To know you face—

The face of closeness—

Or of death…..
