Truth Through Throat
Tears rolling down in anguish
making my head stiffened over my soggy pillow,
mind unthoughtful of what next
sorrow, guessing it could go any further?
lips trembling ,
tears over the crisps ,reds of lips
thirst abandoning the throat,
fingers gliding over my arche-scars,
and when I unfold my eyes
tears obstructing my vision to God.
Still I made the courage
peeped into the sky
as if there's nothing between me and my lord.
I questioned ...What it's like to be your beloved one ???
My sole is tangled 🪢
couldn't conclude whether this is test or punishment.
If it's a test where it terminates
if not test then where have I wronged .
................ thoughts intermingled ...
.........tears rolling down over the cheeks
..........and finding it's way to escape .....
..........into a deep slumber ......
