Before I Bid Adieu ……


 

Submerged in past bundles of dreams

Maple leaves dotting your stone

Resting date on epitaph loudly screams

But, a bird in me remains silent and alone


I sprinkle vivid colours and lush

A canvas strewn with sinful escapades

Vicious thoughts continue to crush

Prick my heart with sharp blades


Oh, my dear painful memoirs

Conclude your melodious cuckoo call

I will applaud you last under the stars

Before I bid adieu to one and all


Shaking off the dusty confessional rugs

Who I was, I should not give a damn

If I wipe my house off past specks

Surely, I will turn into who I am

Why Have You Forsaken me ?....

The sky joined me in weeping dry
Tears white flaked balls of cotton
To stuff my ears from hearing
The sound of her departing steps

Footprints of memoirs on the cold canvas 
Will curve inward and vanish away
The trail will become askew and dull
I will snail alone to the finishing line
