They make their way through the crowd.

Beneath the sky amber in the last sun
the retrieved spark steers their feet
to explore the gorgeously festive town
smelling of discovery at every turn
of people and shops and sellers
and food tempting to be tasted
women too lovely not to be noticed
houses illuminated like light is free
flying as in a dream long in the coming
but arrived too glorious for any regret.

The younger when a few paces ahead
stops so the other could catch up
always remembering the six years
matter much in the count of speed.

The sky above grows older and paler
but their blistered feet feel no pain
from the four hours of rewinding years
glistening as night dew in their eyes.
A travel with my brother, and dedicated to him.

Seema
Through the forest
Into the meadows
No time to rest
Hiding from shadows

Nearing the lake
Catching on my breathe
Keeping myself awake
From the goons wreath

They swarm to places
Looting the riches
They painted their faces
Some looked like witches

I have to hide
As they have seen me
My eyes on guard
Keeping silent as I can be

I hear the horses
Nearing the lake
Wading with forces
With their takes

Night was long
And so was fear
What they did was wrong
They just give others tear

Upon twilight I reached home
Everything was devastated
They took my favorite comb
On return they stated

Written on the walls
Were the words in bold
"I am watching you from the falls"
"Your head in my hand, I hold"

Now I'm scared to step out
They set me on a trigger
I can't even shout
An escape, why can't I figure

I will use my last boon
To return to my world without scream
This should happen soon
And I will wake up from this dream...
