Snigdha Munipally
We have been fighting hard to stand in the crowd
Anger and insecurities bonded to
Statements n surroundings in the virtue of humans, crushed upon
The little life was living, no more upon.
Seems to be like my poisoning touch might fade others
So here I carry, sack of memories to elope
Elope into a whole new planet named thoughts.
Where I struggle to breathe because of less oxygen,
and a huge amount of contamination of unanswered questions.
Where my body shrinks losing hope in mind and a black hole created in the heart,
Sucking all the cursed parts of me and my soul.
Ask me
Where am "I", in MY world?
And surprisingly nowhere.
Whispered, the dark frozen heart.
Hey hey hey! It's time for the show they screamed
Light focused upon me
I dust my dress
Like last moment mess
Passed my fingers through my hair,
Those curls were just imperfectly perfect.
Here I rise upon my feet with an absolute bliss
to show the world my best move
I take my first step and just then
I was pulled behind.
Found invisible strings attached
I panic, I giggle
screamed for help
N everyone left Laughing over my bleeding wounds
Seems to be like happiness just kissed away.
And now, it's touch is majorly missing.
"Do sinners cry ?", asked a foreign soul.
I hassle while confessing,
it felt as if every muscle of my body was tightening the lie and
Started moving in the reversed direction.
Against the truth
Against my will,
With my anger
With my insecurities.
Yes! Sinners cry sinning
here I, curse the world to tear upon
Just like my hopes
And fears haunt them like scarecrows
Let loneliness surrender around when in need
And Bend to your past just like I did
Scream-scream high till tears dry
I know! I know!
It's not me! I know it's just the sinner in me.
