You are an elusive dream, <br />Oblivion to the pain I endure. <br />You melt into eternity, <br />Every time I open my eyes to touch you. <br /> <br />You are a song from the distant hills, <br />Indistinct but persistent. <br />I may walk into those green hills, <br />To remain trapped within the labyrinths beneath. <br /> <br />Labyrinths in my dreams, <br />Dreams devouring my soul, <br />My soul lost to thee, <br />Three decades ago. <br /> <br /> Today I stand defeated, <br />As the whole world ridicules me. <br />I don't need your sympathies, <br />Just your acceptance. <br /> <br />Shove a dagger deep into my heart, <br />Let me die anyway. <br />Tired of you eluding me, <br />Let me embrace you in my death.<br /><br />Anurag Talukdar<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/three-decades-2/
