Abyss

By Bhavini Gupta

The stardust begins to fall

Softly like feathers on the ground so old

Opens the abyss

Oh ! Wanderers of the night behold !

Oh it has a voice ! It starts to speak

It  wishes upon humans

"May those who seek purpose

find aim in their life

May those who seek contempt 

find closure in their cries

May those who feel insecure 

find peace in their lies 

May those who tempt to sin 

gain control of their minds "

It wishes upon me

"May your heart beats twice as loud

May your charisma dazzle in the crowd 

Bewitch me mind and soul

With your stories still untold" 

I stare into the abyss of my existence 

As she slowly starts to fade

I was a lone wanderer of the night

She came to my aid !

Heard my prayers

Taught me life

Saw my smile

Her purpose was suffice
