the red leaf

vidushi 2007 (uttar pradesh)



They say that they love their angels, but I don't
Because my angels left me in a place  unknown.
I tried to feel like home,
But all i could find were broken globes.

They said that they could fly
But i couldn't
And not because my wings were cut
But 'cause all the doors were shut.
I hoped and hoped to find some hope,
But how could I?
When I was chained to that daunting rope.

After few games of my destiny, I found releif
All in a single red leaf.
Because when you have seen the whole forest burn
Even small things can make you dream
But never find yourself lost in them
'Cause dreams aren't something
You can acheive.
