A great gloom has crept into the home...
A dark, sinister menace roams in the air unknown!

The baby in the cradle plays unaware...
Of the time left for it to know what it were!
The world will never be the same again after this pandemic is completely over!

A hundred fireflies trapped in a glass jar...

Beautifully vulnerable...

Begging some uncommon empathy from the watching world...

Soft light faded with perpetual sadness of being exiled...

In their minds they imagined a kindred spirit releasing them...

Dissolving into the earthly air they would have made sunsets look even more beautiful...

Yet they lay... Hindered... longing liberty... and a toy of some wild spirit in search of fun...

That banished their liveliness at the stake of one's happiness!

Aparna
miscellaneous matter
clouds,earth,air
stars blurred
into phospenes
spaced out,
dark
eyes gaze
at the Moon,
plummeting
deeper
deeper still,through an
embrasure in time,
as life
shatters
into smithreens
fragments
of yestreen
strewn
about
mirroring
the stars 
in silver slivers
of lightyears
as moon swam
in liquid dark eyes
and the stars awoke,

On the wings of the wild bird... Beyond the sun and the moon...

On the carriage of fragrance... Beyond musk roses and juicy tulips...

On the decks of submerged ships... Beyond the greatest oceans...

On the back of the little speck of dust... Beyond the black holes and nebulas...

My mind longs to escape into the unknown!
Struggling to be really free...
Thank you for reading! :) ❤

As the winter hibernates in  burrows beneath the warm summer soil...
And summer lurks behind the rugged bark of naked winter trees...
So does my longing for the one clads my soul...
Playing hide and seek in a castle of gold...
Hidden and found time and again...
Yet never completely lost!
Penning after a while!
Thank you for reading this ❤

Violin strings broken by a pacing mind...

Flower beds trampled by rugged feet...

Sky crashing over the head like a curse...

Sunsets but remnants of tears long rolled down the cheek...

Her world just turned to being colourless...

Trapped in that one single heartbeat  only which can sustain!
For that one moment in life when it seems just the end... Let us keep hope!
Thank you for reading this... ❣
