The petals!

- Thahdeera E.R

I enjoyed the warmth of blanket

Laid in ,with an illusion

Unaware of the thorns and fragrance

A narrow rope of hope knocked me

Lucid eyes opened,

"O mesmeric soul, come out ,

For you own this kingdom

Come-out to be the queen

The power, the grace , the bliss

Within your ravishing hands

Welcome to this beautiful land"

Could not help but coming out,

My bare feet tasted the breeze

Sun's soothing rays smooched me

I came out with a felicity !

I was being welcomed with all the rituals

My eyes couldn't believe

Was that a mere phantom?!

With never ending wishes

Days went on one by one

My beauty wasn't easy

Sobbing soul never said 'no'

"Doughty ,determined,dauntless" they said

Yet, nebulous heart I had!

Would it ever stop??

I sadly was a witness

My slowly wasting skin was evident

My days were countable !

The endmost dying petals smiled,

At you, her, him and none!

The burning tips somehow giggled

The giggle echoed!

Shedding away the chaotic petals!

In no time ,I cried ,

I felt the warmth again,

But it was of the shrouds,

Yes, I had to go,

To the vast celestial city!

Where I heard have no end

And to constantly smile!
