The days go by…

a poem by Shruti Vellody

The days go by, on and on
The nights seem dark and long
My eyes try and wander deep
But my mind no longer wants to sleep

Wilder days are yet to come
Yet it seems I’m on the run
Chaotic words and complaisant bonds
I wonder what my heart wants?

My soul speaks of silences heard
And yet I reminisce spoken words
If tomorrow passes by, without a whisper, without a sound
Then my restless soul will be forever bound!
