Apparition of life | Vaidehi Purohit

The sunlight fading away , whenever I wanted it to stay

Leaving the darkness behind

Which encapsulated me as I passed the time

The darkness is ominous

I feel it creeping inside me

Taking over my mind , body and soul

The night turns stormy with thunders aloud

As if they are telling me something through the cloud

I try to cover my ears but the thunder whispers

Something I could never understand

The reality desolving in the sand

As the rain starts with the thunder

I just stand there and shudder

It feels as if it's my death time now

As I look towards the sky and it growls

I stand there still waiting for the rain to drown me or for the thunder to burn me alive

For my death,I strive

The thunder intensifies and so does the rain,as I feel all the pain

I feel relieved as I move towards death

But who knew it wasn't my last breath

I was still in the mortal world

But now I understood the thunders word

Death is what I wanted,but life is what I needed

Cause every time my wounds bleed,the darkness would strengthen my creed

And the thunders whispers were Something I craved for peace .
