The promise
11-12 June 2016
Moonlit skies
They speak of night’s wish
Silent flames
The stars bright
The Time when all sets in right
Falling into place
Silken lace
Velveteen instants
Dark aglow
With the light
A million candles whisper
Haunting tapestry
Leitmotiv
In the mind voices
They call out
To shadows
They breathe the night to forgive
In places to cure
Minds allure
Power a totem
Branded cow
Takes a bow
Corridas for all genders
The new age tenders
She waits lone
Her frame silent tomb
Engulfing
Pervading
The night’s thicket like black ink
As the seconds drop
Countless times
She rehearses phrase
The one learnt
In a daze
When everything meant something
When promises held
True beacon
It is in the flame
That shivers
Yet shimmers
As the white wicker simmers
With remnants of heat
The dust shines
In between shadows
Translucent
White traces
Of the decaying matter
Clinging on to life
Lessons learnt
They may rewind Time
To fulfill
The promise
The heart a faithful servant
Love only master
