PRAKHAR SHARMA May 2020
Looking back at my life,
How many chapters I hath finished?
Is there an end to it?
but the end is scary?
I have to walk the way of life.
Tirelessly striving to achieve the satisfaction
Alas it seems to slip from my grasp
Like the restless sands of dreams.
Waiting for the lights to switch off
There will come a time
When this scenery will engulf my eyes
And tears of life will give birth to new feeling
And no matter how much I hath read
The last one is what I have to write.
PRAKHAR SHARMA May 2020
The portrait of lies rivals unparalleled beauty,
conversing arrogantly, Oh! Such a pity.
The fire dancing dazzlingly at the fireplace
And unresolved feelings flow down my face.

I happen to cross a solitary evening,
with neighboring wild slowly dying.
Distant howling signifying the dawn of night
And the glory of stars engulfed my sight.

Once again, I gazed at the portrait.
Even though I trust my fate
A knock at my door seems too late
And hope is what I await.

Life has been such a miracle
And my journey seems to reach its pinnacle
I wish I would not suffer,
As I walk in hands with my slumber.
My heart recites for me
PRAKHAR SHARMA May 2020
Thou art a beautiful creation,
Not for a naught, but for preservation.
I am selfish, oh! Such prejudice.
Yet I art selfish for thee.
Oh!!I beseech thee!
Look away and far away.
Awaiting thou presence stand thy world,
So, let solitude prevail.
Walk and walk and walk,
On an endless road,
With burning rain dampening thy face.
Witness thy world in its utmost glory.
Build thy life and never stop,
And if a day is to come,
when thy heart tire thyself,
let our roads intervene.
I would stand there,
Awaiting thy presence.
Come to me O!! my princess.
My heart recites for me
PRAKHAR SHARMA May 2020
Which era is this?
Where love eminences to suffer,
Where unexpected arrival reeks fear.
Afar destination still awaits our bliss.

Which era is this?
Where nature rampage over and over,
Where Red Dahlias disguise as beautiful aster,
Afar destination still awaits our bliss.

Which era is this?
Where burning tears of sky leisurely cry terror,
Where the last phrase of life exclaims horror.
Afar destination still awaits our bliss.

Behind our backs the door slowly closes
And In front a new one appears to venture
New era awaits our torture
And miles and miles are yet to cover.
PRAKHAR SHARMA May 2020
I still remember the woods,
Covered with life and endless goods.
And what was not we expected to avail,
Sing O Sing! O Nightingale.

It was a day of miracle
So superficial yet so fatal
Harmony and love came together
Raining with beautiful white feather.

Your eyes beamed with happiness
Clutching my heart with loneliness
And years and years to come
Be the song that I hum

Never living up to expectation,
Who would have thought of extinction.
And all the memories of this hush
Sealed in my heart with your last touch.

— The End —
