Dismal Night
Staggering down a lonely track
Out of nowhere, began those silent screams
They were shrill, overpowering the sky, vacant and dark
Sorrow flowed through my eyes
Eyes, colder than the winter rainfall
Unlikely to move, with bodies and souls stiffening up
Shivers travelled in out of nowhere
The lost time crumbled like an avalanche
Untouched by joy or sorrow
Way deep and down
Leaving traces of snow behind each step
White overpowered the golden array
Leaves turned pale yellow, all because of the falling snow
Unbearable silence began crippling my ears
A ruined love song flew through my mind
Lips were bleeding, and the voices had frozen
It never rained, those were all tears
Behind the dazzling, deep eyes
It was winter and we weren’t together
It’s winter again and love seems to have frozen
