I Shall Wait

a poem by Ajai Narendran

I’m saying hello to you
can you hear me?
I await your appearance
ever and for ever more
till the day you come very near
and can hear my faint whisper.
I shall wait even if void encompass all around
making the entire universe
devoid of even a single soul
and I’m left all alone.
Can you see
me falling into the dark abyss,
can you see me
soaring above the lofty peaks
towards your light flickering afar…
You are taking me into and out of hell.
But, still I pursue for, I know that
eventually you will take me out for ever!
