TESTIMONY OF TRUTH

By G BHARGAV

Long after the day broke into dark

and camouflage of cloud

sheltering the skin of the sky and scar.

A droplet of death

descending on to the dais of danger.

Every atom alarmed

at the wailing of life in silence.

A vapour of hope approaching

from behind a forest dense,

dancing to the drain of rain.

A break from your busy

to embrace my emptiness

engraved on each of my bone.

Thunder tidying our shadows

to wonder which is whose.

Cracking the lamp to fill up

the gap of light with defence of squeeze.

Moving the madness

from margins to majority each minute.

Each breath beats

to the heart of the opposite.

The sweat tearing the skin apart,

to an agony of pleasure in pain.

Each leaf ruffling at our laugh.

The evening ending into infinity.

The tears telling

to take this as testimony of truth.
