I walked through the day... learnt to fight dismay...
If this is what life wants... I better gulp my qualms...
Every grain of lament... that I collect in your name...
will surely add up somewhere... within me it'll remain...
There will come a time... you'll witness a subdued climb...
Of a journey you cherished... slowly fading in thin air...
Perhaps then it may dawn... mine was an act of care...
I know you know not now... to remember those vows...
And then...
You point me to a mirror... that speaks loud & clear...
Showing me where I stand... stealing away my chance...
Things shown to me you had... I wish you too see that...
Roads you chose for me... weigh with common ink on thee...
When emotions go numb, and love voices despair...
A damage I sense so grave, it seems beyond repair...
For all that I may reason... I face a closed door...
Still afloat with hopes... to catch a glimpse of shore...
