Lifeless

Sonakshi Das 2005 (Kolkata)

Free verse
Constantly mind drifted to that horrific memory ,
The day when my childhood was snatched away ,
And locked me in the bars of unknown darkness ,
The smell of my misfortune knocking me out constantly,
Drinking my cup of hatred with a tea spoon of pain and agony ,
Soul of dead bodies smells heaven ,
Heart aches for those deadly bodies .
