Lost in a bid to win
I succumb slowly
to your whims and fancies!!
Is it not you again
who promised days of peace...
Broken promises add to days
that only stain my cheeks
with salty trails of tears...
Burning nights with unslept dreams
I toss around crevices of bedsheets
to get lost into deep sleep!!
Yet, it doesn't happen to me
that will soothen my bulging heart!!
Pains rule my night and day
Still I hope redemption is not far away!!
