Deep Mukherjee - Life - two-fold

Perceived by etherial darkness
Embedded in the fabric of pain
Pain - the essence of my lonely heart! !

Waves scattered of crimson flame
Once the symbol of hope and freedom
Now seems the epitome of deceit! !

Clouds quenched of thirst
Sun rises and Sun sets;
The sun of my dreams sank forever! !

The wings of burden
Once conceived as my way to salvation
From this dismal slavery of life! !

The golden cage of palace
Now empty with eternal voidness
Once haunted by the laments of respite! !

One home of encaged soul
Another of unknown future
Where's the home that I craved for! !

A rusted bullet through my head
Slowly losing my senses;
Senses secured in the depth of abyss! !

Moments like golden grains of sand
Phew! they creep away
Like dreams set free on the horizon! !

Slowly embraced by the world of death
Death - a place of profound silence;
Silence broken by the mourning bird! !

A mystery and a dream
The bird in the azure sky
Singing the song of eternal pain! !
