Waves

Short poem.

waves of tears

drenching my crooked bones

roll down this rusted skin

and go in vain

guess i fell too deep

crashing down

the memory lane.

i settle at last

with my head unstable,

choking on the fumes

Remember me for faster sign in

of my senses burning

the mere thought of you

kills me,

yet it is my soul’s,

sole yearning.

then finally

them waves stop rumbling

the chaos is silenced,

now numbed with pain.

i’ve emptied the ocean of my eyes

crying gentle rhymes

about you

again.
