UNREAD MESSAGES

On the road I walked 

I had thrown diamonds 

In search of pebbles and stones

Though it rained over my shoulders

My heart knew that it were my tears 

That had flooded the road 

That moment of silence 

I dropped my phone 

My feet stuck there

And I had fallen to the ground

Only fearing 

She would bury me alive 

Like the others around me

Hoping someday

That the rays of sun show

Mercy to the unread messages

Of a phone lying in a cemetery

WAS IT ONLY ME??

Is it only me who dreamed 

Of the perfect picture 

And never could get in the frame

I had bridged the gaps of my life 

Between the future and the past 

Blood stains on the rope

Bullet holes on the wood 

I couldn't cross an inch away form her 

But i had to travel yet a mile 

I dragged along the windy path 

Holding on to the final threads of my life 

The bullet wound in my knee did hurt 

As i finally stood up on the other end

The faded memories followed in haste ..

My outstretched hand 

Didn't save them this time 

Rather cut the ropes 

With the same knife 

She drove in me  

When all the memories cascaded,

When all the smiles faded,

When it was all over,

Was it only me 

Who was left crying!!
