Like the world has gone in an endless pause
Like the bruises have been ripped open to some veiled cause,
The spring jaded and gone
and the colours of zeal ebbed away like it never was born.
Marooned with the prayers , cozened from the world ambushed
within our own piteous selves
but even summer flunked to resurrect us from the loop of all
the wrong amends.
Coveting for the phlegmatic oceans far above the horizons
Or flying solo with the mountains, the raphsody of life whisking
in,
Frolicking in the darkest hours, transcending in the
drizzles- to enliven, to wizen,
They are now but dreams, dreams enmeshed in the myriad chaos
of a naked virus
the plethora of unexplored dreams of delving into the
fathomless world
have now dried up , even their warmth no more cajole us.
Everyday soothing the nerves , calming this hysteria
The fear that soars within is too mulish
Funny how trapped with this fear we seem like some insolent pariah.
The Autumn came like
a frozen shadow and yet the nature emblazon in her euphoric glees
The scent of festival unfurling in air and yet
We, caged in this
maze counting the clock ticking the perils.
Besieged with wry yet
travailing to wear the pastel smile
because faith that holds our sails, stalls the blackened
fears and
varnishes the rest hundred miles.
But for how long shall this infamously despised virus
lampoon us?
For how long the
ominous reflections of ‘all that could go wrong’ dog us?
Drunk in the lethal nectar of uncertainty
Is that not a lie to say that, ‘this too shall pass’!
