BLOOD AND TEAR

After a long time I was on my village

Years of silence burst out at once

The same place where I grow in sun and shower

where the first rain drops touched my feet

where the grass field I played

and after along time I was on my village

I stepped out from shell of memories

In few seconds I was all wet

Rain drops kissed my face

Starts melting heart & mind

And the unfaithful tears they fall

Like rivers streaming hot through the muggy mist

And I cried alone in that rain

Confusion feeds like a savage inside,
Leaving nothing considered worthy remains
Destined to walk through life less ordinary
Alone, exiled, different and disdain

My heart moves from fire to cold

look like a helpless chick in the rain

And I cried alone in that rain

As it started raining more heavily

The sound of thunder grooved

I could feel loneliness, wandering here and there

Looking for all that my pain can recognize

I couldn’t, my tears were all lost in the rain

I could feel burning on my cheeks,

When the cold rain drops feel on it,

Who knows what I look for

Still not see the kids who needs me, my babies

Now they lies in their tombs

Where on their tombs , the devils playing

And singing no worries of tomorrow

And there I cried alone in that rain

Are they far away from me but I can’t forget

Oh, I can’t go back and live in the past

Just as I enjoy the peacefulness of a full moon

With warmth and love, but where I lost my life

In the dances of sword and guns

Or in the horrors we saw, and

Or in the nightmare of flames and destruction

Too may tears turn into blood

When my aching soul is about to flee

The sadness and loneliness it is a witness too

And there I cried alone in that rain

TO ALL THE VICTIMS OF GUJARAT COMMUNAL RIOT
