Misfortune

The pit in my stomach

Digs deeper every minute

The black clouds close in

Trying to dampen my spirit

The hesitant mind is scared

Wondering what to anticipate next

The worse was done and still

Nowhere is returning the best

The dark clouds close in

As questions surround me

Did I do it alright or

Did I do what was to be?

My guilt only deepens

When I know of your pain

Here I am, lonely too

Running off and crying in the rain

I avoid your sad face

The hundred questions in your eyes

I look and think about what’s gone

The chances lost twice and thrice

In my every attempt

To screen and avoid you

Somewhere inside, I badly want

To hold you.. to kiss you…

But wishes are bitches, them !

And my silent tear falls..

A sudden emptiness embraces me

And my eyes be emotionless walls

I cut outside and shout inside

The Night Fury in me yet wants to fight

Hurt not or may, burn not or may..

It’s your misfortune what I did was right !
