The withdrawing sources, the dead arteries
Lifeless- the stranded winds chatter helplessly
Perspiring foreheads wipe off the destiny
Life’s sudden bend towards an unknown existence
Dissipating energies; wasted in arguments
This sudden halt leads to an uncanny future
So sure, so bold, so arrogant, so sure of everything
Challenging the world, even the existence of life
Seeds of rage now devour the vibrancy
Smudged colours- ancient murals are reminders
Whatever occurred in the caves is still unknown
Our stories are no balms to calm the pain
~Amitav
I love this one.
