Burden of Lies
(By- Protichi Chatterjee.)
Cold
winds blew past me and swept
Every
trace of the numerous tears I wept.
Hardened
my warm soul
Into
nothing less than ice
And
made me shudder with the gravity of my own lies.
I
aimed to my right
And
threw the weight of the gravity with all my might.
It
only increased its power on me
And
I could neither endure nor flee.
So
supreme was its burden
That
I was buried underneath it.
My
life giving element forbidden
I
was losing myself bit by bit.
I
spoke aloud and thrashed for help
Maybe
a one or two dog- like yelp.
No
one came and rescued me
Or
gave a second glance at the suffering of thee.
I
confessed, thinking this was the end of me
When
suddenly the burden lifted and I was able to breathe.
The
heavens opened up for me to see
The
showers of blessings and memories sweet.
