THIRSTY SOUL…

THIRSTY SOUL…

Thirsty soul

Walking by sea-shore

Looks through the horizon

Infinite water

With a Glimpse of hope

To quench its thirst

Dives through

Deep down

Swallows it all, but

Salt dilutes the blood

Tongue reacts

Spills it all, surprised

It looks to that

Infinite domain

Disappointed, it walks back

To the world, it left deserted,

World, of fading hopes, dead souls

Whose bloods polluted

The river, and

Water became an illusion

Alas! The moment of apocalypse

It thinks for a moment, and a sigh

Sits on the chair

Looks at the table 

That still had a paper, a pen

An ink-pot with last few drops

Lying at the bottom,

Thirsty soul

Once again

Swallows it all,

Licks every last drop, of ink

Mixes with the blood

Nerves twitches

Venom or nectar

Uncertain, it dips the pen

In own heart, and decides

To rewrite the history

Of someone

Once called

Human!
