Black Out

Dec 4, 2025

By Lakshmi Yasheca Sanka


My heart stopped shining

Like the lights turn off,

that was due to power cut

but mine was due to you.


was a planet who shined bright,

cuz of your starlight.

the back steps you take,

little by little makes me go in vain.


You were a prism,

Who showed me the colours of the world.

Without whose sight,

Became black and white.


My ears full of your whispers,

Without which is difficult to hear.

My eyes which only saw you,

Is now wandering with no curfew.


You try to leave,

Yet I show up.

Causing more pain to the heart,

Who already suffocated a lot.


The sea may not have oxygen,

But it has gravity.which is you,

Who drowned me into the dark.


I have a heart,

Which is a boomerang.

Throw me multiple times,

But it still finds the path.
