Fireflies

Oro666 1998 (Dhaka)



Sat with a void
Words are trapped
Didn’t pay attention
To thy desires

Suddenly showed up
A bunch of fireflies
The sun was about to hide
Behind the scene
Where my sight can’t reach

Evening it is
Lost the track of all
The bunch performed its best
In the absence of glow

Some strangers caught those all

Related the lights of the fireflies
As the desires of my life
Which was trapped in the jar
Portraying the responsibility and all
