You say you are lonely! ! <br />Come see my world <br /> <br />Harvesting the seeds of solitude <br />And singing a melancholy fugue <br />Everyday I creep inside those four walls of utter oblivion <br />Shut to the world, numb to the pain that shines gloriously on my face, <br />And every night, the silent mourning is witnessed <br />By a heart losing its trace <br /> <br />Dark inside, deep beneath, it thrives on my soul, <br />Everyday, I lie on my bed, searching with empty stares, in a dark room. <br />And that slightest flutter, accompanies me in my hour of gloom, <br />Rusting memories placed atop a precarious table, <br />Photographs lying on the floor, <br />And some memories ravaged like forgotten fables <br />The coven of the ash, devastated by the gust of wind <br />I lie watering the roots of intoxication in my veins, <br />Which feeds me with a momentary pleasure amidst meticulous pain <br /> <br />Sardonic laughter echoes back to me, stirring a peaceful ache, <br />Which craves me for a self obsessed abate <br />In realms of depression, that is how I survive <br />Ossified and subdued <br />Tears frozen beyond redemption <br />And a soul beyond virtue <br />Death of words solaced by the wails of dissension <br /> <br />And you say you are lonely! ! <br />Come see my world<br /><br />Shagun Khera<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/are-you-lonely-come-see-my-world/
