i saw

 

Doors vanished,

Shackles withered,

Sky blossomed into the cerulean, I ever loved,

When the dusk-sun shed its last petals on the clouds,

I saw,

the rainbow descending on me.


Heavens bloomed,

Moonlight gushed,

Nightingale sung the song I ever yearned

When the flame shivered in the wind,

I saw,

the clouds climbing down the aisle.


Wind strayed,

Chill thawed,

Trees shivered in the night-rain I ever dreamt

When I held myself to my heart,

I saw,

the stars raining into my eyes.

 

Birds returned,

Shores slept,

Waves tired in the tide, I ever amazed

When the river slept alone,

I saw,

the waves transforming into golden garlands.


Earth drenched,

Scent rose,

Rain nestled in my eyes, I ever veiled

When a deluge grew within me

I saw,

the ajar doors of heaven above my sky.


Darkness evaporated,

Dreams dissolved,

My upheld palm lost the hold, I ever believed

When the knots released its hug in the back surge,

I saw,

 

I saw, Me looking at the clouds..

..alone, in the midst of mirages..


… alone!
