The light of soul may dim sometimes

And the situation be all bleak

The darkness slowly creeps in

Aura turning all blue!

 

Eyes blinded by floods,

Not a soul in sight

The weak muscles all screaming,

‘Get somebody for support’

 

A cry heard far, far away

Yet not a soul turned up

Energy, emotions wasted so…

Oh! If only

 

Expectations, love is all farce

Nobody stands by for long

Water ebbs and flows forward

Who wastes time on a stuck up soul?

 

In those moments of loss and despair

Do you find your reservoir?

The identity, your individuality

And that dependence is addictive too!
