a time
slipping out of hands
an age
whisking away
moments of happiness
trapped in sands
and dreams
still rolling in hay
for the broken dreams
i sing this lullaby today
breathless and torn inside
this gloomy day
i could feel myself growing older
i could possibly be failing
if i had something else to gain
it was you
who made me feel the rain
breathless and torn now
i could feel myself turning into dust...
two strangers turning into dust...
greived and compucted
my contrite conscience
keeps banging inside
in defiance
i could feel the touch turning into dust..
two strangers turning into dust
balmy evenings
starry nights
still hold me stupified
heavens pity my plight
i could feel myself under your faith
but now i'm fading
fading into dust
i could feel my eyes turning into dust..
two strangers turning into dust
still falling
breathless and torn again
to watch it all
go up in flames
still falling
walking this road again
taking each day as it arrives
midnight diamonds stud my heaven
the warm winds that embrace me
just as surely kissed your face
i could feel that face turning into dust..
two strangers who turned into dust...
SANDS OF TIME...

Nice try aupsy....on ur way to become a wordsmith....:)
u started in easy mood but later it feels to me that u r hurt deep inside becoz of something....hehe
and these lines are above my head
i could feel that face turning into dust..
two strangers who turned into dust...
@mukul
wordsmith huh!!! Wats that man...takin the analogy frm a blacksmith (a role which u must hv played in ur BMP workshops)..it seems someone who breaks and moulds and deforms words!!! kewll
abe its just a contemplative poem...u can try n interprete in ur own ways ...the jist is that whoever ive known well has turned into dust at some point of time...or simply put it...has parted ways...
why then two strangers...???
@mukul
why...i say...doesnt it alwayz happen wid people that they start with strangers and end all the same -as strangers...
n i fail to understand why...
