Why do these people have to be
Symbols of cruelty
Once I gave them love and affection
Now they pay back with pain equal to crucifixion
What have I done for the pain I bare?
I thought them friends
But alas
They changed their friends with changing trends
From that time on, like the tree of life
Alone in a desert was I
Lost in the labyrinth of my life
My heart and soul were dry
Then as if from heaven, sent by God
Came a pure white soul
As though the angel of the lord
Had come to guard my soul
Wherever I went my mind remained
On the angel sent my God
But one question deep down remained
Was this love in its truest form, or just another fraud?
As the days went by, my heart felt light
Like the deepest, darkest night
Now, sleep did come during the nights
And made the days more bright
It was like the silver of the monsoon cloud
The amber that turned gold
But yet my head and heart were bowed
With fear that the past may unfold
The closer we got, the more I fought
The urge to stay away
But the distance cowered and we were showered
With so much love, how much I could never say.
At the end of a year so full of colour
Came the time for “good bye”
And I was left a wilting flower
With no one nearby
