her soul wandering,
Amidst the crowd
In a city of lights,
Bright while outshining the stars.
A whiff,a silence... Stood apart-
while, mind begged to stay still.
crowd felt familiar
Yet, her soul drowns in loneliness.
Her soul echoes with memories.
Living with the nostalgia-
who am I without it?
She needles herself, with joy in disguise.
She craves to feel it again.
She gave herself, but what's the use?
She lost.
The lingering anger within her endure,
was it all meant nothing?
Yet, she's contended with purpose of visit,
Is she meant to stay or destined to leave?
She still wanders,
In search of an answer.
