Debris

a poem by Ajith

Don’t you know,
Its my last birthday.
Alone I am here,
With your memories.

Do I have a chance,
For she has left me,
Why have you bloomed,
To decorate no one.

She has reasons,
But I have only,
A season of rain
To hide my tears.

So, my little one
Let me pluck you!
To take you with me
Happiness awaits us.

I need a friend,
In my last journey
For I am drenched
In silence of sorrows.

Allow me to kiss you,
Before I kill you,
Let me wipe your dew,
As I shed my tears.

Scared aren’t you
Like a small child,
Away from its mother,
Sobbing and crying.

A time without end,
And no beginning
Is calling me now
To be in togetherness.

I have no one,
To say goodbye
No one to shed a tear,
Or someone for a last kiss.

Why are these clouds
So dark and scary,
But I am sure of my journey,
With you to the end.

You are pale today
With drooped petals,
Let me color you
Red with my blood.

Let me kiss you
One last time,
Before you say good bye
To your life.

Why do you say NO!
May be you are scared
To take that selfish plunge
To forget my sorrows.

Can’t you hear her laughs
Who nurtured you
For she’s happy
That I am alone!

Look!I am handsome today
No grey hairs
No more wrinkles and
In my best attire I am.

Read my mind
Its pure, yet dipped in
Love and potioned
With a spell.

Do you hate me
Am I not your friend
Your saviour
From life to eternity

Won’t you come with me
Oh beautiful one
For this time is mine
I have made it still

Let us say good bye
Taking that plunge
From that cliff
Down to death…
