By Astha Bajpayee

Waiting for the last leaf to fall
To redeem my downfall
Don't know how to cure this pain
Running so fast in my veins
Hope in just that leaf
Giving me a little relief
Just looking out to see some stars
Who could wound my inner scars
Deep n deep in sleep
I couldn't recognise my own breath
Where am I carrying my self
Going down n down towards hell
Looking at the spring bizzare
Who could just take me far
Hope lies within that last leaf
Please don't fall as I still have hope to relive....
