An Orphan

An orphan's saga.

I peep out through the crevices of the door

To the bright day outside

Sun smiling elegantly.

Inside i reside

Trapped in dark

Alone

Fearsome of the outside world

I lay scandalized

My existence at stake

I am crushed

My voice pressed

For i m a loner

An orphan

I stand at the window

Watching the rainfall

As if sky descending

Luring me to dance

The whirling of the leaves

Remind me of god’s existence

But i still lay frozen,

Immobile, heartless

For this is the way my life is!

I stare at the populace outside

Unlike me, my desiccated spirit

They seem aliens, strangers.

As the day sets

Leaving me in twilight dew

I pray my spirit be freed

The captive spill of evil

The darkness, decadence.

Dear god

Let your lap be my home

And your words the light!

"My existence at stake
I am crushed
My voice pressed
For i m a loner
An orphan"------ what an emphasized statement!

lifeless objects like doors and windows too attain their life here..
great representation of objects..

Beautiful.. I must say...
