Longest Night



Under the cloud scared sky
over looking lake reflecting yellow lights,
with neither clouds nor lights
being part of the dark sky or motionless lake
life, seems to scar and reflect
without being as much part of me
and I wandered to the broken voice
of deaf singer lost in words
on the longest night

Travellers they wait for the whistles blow
to chug along the parallel lines,
dogs they search trees lined
for they care less about the fruits borne
I, on the other hand
wait for fruits to fall at the dogs bark
standing on a platform where the train never stops
on the longest night

  4. .... maybe because we're living those and yet waiting, someday for that train, full of these old, forgotten friends to stop at the platform and carry us home. Just like in 'Come Soon'
