Dedicated to RomyaniChakrabarti who joined Wattpad today. HAPPY READING.

The heavy webs of sadness
Hang from the vaulted ceilings,
Of the ancient spaces in my mind.
The peeling apart paint,
The cracks on the walls,
All ready to crumble down,
At the slightest hit, a blow.
The mansion of memories I made,
Are crumbling down like,
A fragile house of cards,
Facing a strong gust of wind.
The creaking floorboards,
Hiding secrets, have been buried,
Beneath the layers of neglect,
The the dust of mistrust.
The heavy wooden doors locked,
The rusted bolt hasn't been opened,
And creaks and groans in protest.
And people give up hope.
I'm lost in the void of darkness,
And the miasma of despair,
With the scream of nightmares,
And the ruins of innocence.
The fire of unfelt miseries,
Of betrayal, love, the war of hearts.
Has been raging in the niche,
Gutting down the structures,
The careful sculptures of creation,
My imagination trying to battle,
The mind trying to quell the flames.
But the wish has stopped.
The desire has vanished to try.
Now all I can do is to let go.
The fire will destroy what's left of me.
Should I emerge with scars,
Fear me not if I change.
The burns will be a reminder.
Of what was me and what is me,
And the memories sailing away,
As the ashes of destruction.
