Tears

By Kaustuv M Talukdar

Feelings, emotions, the endless tears,

Is it really seen when the mind tears?

The everlasting memories engraved,

Not so pretty they are, the past path paved,

The sudden downfall, the reach for a bar,

Hung on to it, doesn't just wanna fall far,

It does haunt, but who sees it,

Hidden deep in the corners, who knows it?

The night so long, so long-drawn-out,

The own's screaming silent shout,

Never the day seen, the day of resurrection,

Into the unforeseen, into the unknown,

The path to desolation, no ray to guide,

Never know into the dark just where to hide,

The reach for the restoration,

The uncertain hope for the liberation,

Whom to say, whom to go,

Just a harsh reality, go with the flow,

Feelings, emotions, the endless tears,

Is it really seen when the mind tears?
