The Attic

One day, when the universe is tired

of staying up all night and day

When the sentinels of the world are fast asleep,

like on a Sunday noon

I'll take a step out And the world will sigh

scaled worries everywhere

from the sky to the pit, High and low.

the everlasting dream

I still have it

Tucked away safely in the attic

With the green marble and

The fluffy blanket, the wand like wooden stick

And that dress I could never throw away..

Things came, and things went away

The stroke of sun and moons bright gleam

The east wind or the pouring monsoon

A baby's first cry or grandpa's last breath

Things came, and things went away.

But them collected souvenirs remained

Like old souls turning in their graves

Heavy, aching and cold like our hearts.
