Flashing in black head to toe
Silky long, jet black tresses
Can her presence go unnoticed ?No!
Delicately embroidered lace gown
The black scarf that Ravens would’ve known

The scene changed a bit too fast
Cool full moon would no longer last
Howling wolves and clouded sky
Leaves cried foreseeing the pain
Thunder rumbled as it did rain

Her Nails bled & fell apart
Supple skin wrinkled and turned black
Black blood flooding her eyes
Long silky tresses all matted up
Lips cracked as she advanced towards me

There stood she darker than black
With a ready open embracing arms
Every time I walk towards her
My world falling apart
Seeing her Fangs my heart pumping fast

What’s happening to me ?
She’s tryinna get into me ?
Oh no! Stop ! Don’t take me !
“Hahahaha”
She’s got in me ?

Who is she ?
Now I am that she !
I am that painful death !
For all those who once loved,
I am their death !

Life’s just a finger bowl darling ?
Are you just seeing the efforts put in vain ?
Are you afraid of the hot bowl?
or lamenting on the warmth lost ?

Winter’s cold frosting Thy skin,  
Summer’s heat burning thy skin,
Rains soaking thy skin,
Yet we love them all !

Remember both are significant,
Happiness and miseries.
But the warmt of reality will bring you to peace,
For nothingness is permanent !

Im embracing the warmth !
The heat that can melt myself ?
Perhaps melting the snow caps
That hid the reality underneath
Yes ! Reality of life unleashed😊

Addictive Enrapturing fragrance,
Lit up the space,
Losing my soul
Bewildered I stood.
I saw her, kept seeing her
Asked myself what is that?
What is it in her I’m lost ?
Virtue bliss or thorny reality.

Thy pricking sweet thorn
Flowing laughter, lightening aura
What do I talk about?
I don’t know what
But.. I wanna tell her something
I miss that presence
Do I tell her ? but then what do I tell her
I myself don’t know the reality.

Stealthy stare? Yes I love !
Yet commanded my eyes not to show,
Emotions that I carry ohoo.
I see rose I smell rose
Could I stop thy pull ?
The game that was never played
Yet lost!

Aye what did you do to me
Am I lost on you ?
I admit .. I lost to you.

Entering confound start of a game
Defending the snakes
Ascending the ladder.
I may fall low to dust
Or rise from phoenix’s ash.
High enough Breaking shackles
prisoning my whipped scarred soul

Every turn you roll thy dice
Oh Dear! Can’t play twice.
Pray to the starts to get
6’s enough to rise high every time
1’s enough to save thy head.

You roll thy dice
Let’s see if snake gobbles the hawk
Or hawk mocks the nimble wit.
When going gets tough
Tough survives, beyond the game
And ******* dice

Be not scared to play
Better to loose after having played
Than to know not the game.
Haha do I have any choice
No Dear ! dare not to opine
Stifle thy voice  
“Doesn’t matter if it’s golden dice  
Cuz life is but a finger bowl “

“If she her gaze falls upon you,
You can’t escape the slow painful death “
All this while I heard people describe her,
Now, yes, it was my turn!

I was eleven, it was my first wild encounter!
Dark as she looks, treacherous like her ways
I asked her “who are you ?
Why don’t people like you “

“Why’s everything so negative about you ?
Why do u hijack people’s glee
Cage them, torment them.
They become suicidal because of you ! “

She smiled at me,
Wiping mine, forever, with salty bursts of tears
Showing her actual eerie self! Casting a spell
My stomach hurt, and I shuddered

she cast her spell on me!
I went up to the window facing the sea
While the wind blew my curtains apart
I saw myself sitting in dark!

Sitting cold and Still I repeated,
ludicrously laughing : “I am her !
I am none but I am she
Haha now starts all my misery! “

I saw the thunder splitting the sea
By then she had become one in me
She muttered - Yes I am she !
I am pain herself !
