The Man

Suddenly, we ran out of steps

The body jitters

But the anatomy didn’t underpin I guess

I stumbled and decided to halt

Eyes started to soak up in tears

Those were the shred kept disciplined to hide pain

Earthly sphere appeared blur enough for the eye

My own body started getting heavy to face the world

Many faces passed these eyes but none felt beloved

Attempts didn’t strike the right chord

Got all lovers but no one to hold

You were not part of life, you were ‘The life’

Even though the footsteps were together 

but they were parallel, unwilling to meet

Days aren’t akin, priorities have change

They ain’t effortless but needs a tread

It felt as if the thread of fate has left me deserted

So many questions but remained unanswered

Undertaking the path less travelled, unprepared

Sometimes helping yourself is the only need

A lot of stimulus distracts these thought process,

Tickles most of my insecurities and sensitivity

Walking everyday caressing this disjointed soul

Maybe some promises were unworthy to be kept

Stitching these broken cracks of heart, I crossed this far

Please, don’t stop me, your tears, your words can weaken me

Wounds might have healed but those scars remained suppressed

No stranger's attention can manifest my passion now

I wished his soul to rest calm whereas my soul was not at peace

That image which drove me towards previously, I am running from it

He already died for me, I survived

But apparently he was also burying me inside.
