Fades Away

G.Aakash 2022 (Hyderabad)



When the shock came through,
the mind lost control.

What was that??
I don't know.
May be  a missile
Projected in trajectile,

Those war days,
lost loved ones,
bouncing tears,
fading memories,
pain pierce heart,
emotion rolls out.

Where does it lead??
not a good deed,
come let's bleed,
in the war outfield,

Iam so scared,
be brave my child,
remember these words,

piece isn't cure,
depression endure,
lie on the floor,
close every door,
out flies a jet,
fear rolls out,


What's left there
nothing stands still
One day..........
Everything, FADES AWAY!!

About this poem

The mixture of words, of a father mother and a child discussing during the war days in a helpless situation though feared for lives, parents encouraging their daughter to be brave, facing the situation outside,so that time heals their pain.
