Candle..



Why don't you come
When I invite
Fog melts slowly
Sun getting bright
Stare on the paths
Lips still wordless
Trickle from eyelids
Gloom on the face
Like sunflower
Follow your steps
Roam like wind
Play all the stakes
Still you donot come
My hopes dwindle
How long should I
Burn my candle...!
