And I thought

17 Comments

And I thought
in the shroud of your soul
I will repose forever
in a state of perpetuity
never to be found
by the chaos
that resided deep within me,
which, made my soul listlessly restless
and delirious at times

And I thought
in the shades of your tresses
I would find the soothing bliss
something my heart had forever languished
craved to be in such momentary grace
which, so far had fleeted and escaped

And I thought
in the midst of all my anxieties and trepidations
I would find someone like you
who would calm my perturbation
with a soothing lullaby
until I would dissolve
with a simper through my dreams

And then you came
and all this happened
and some more
before you decided to leave

Was it ​deceit?
I was unsure
was I left to perish?
I couldn’t say,
but one thing was for sure,
the chaos that evaded me
had returned with a​ vengeance
and the furor, the madness
had consumed me and
now I live in its darkest pit

  12. When something like this happens we think life would have been better if that person would never have come in our life coz when they leave it’s worse than before💔
    To be true I loved the part until she came .I wish she never would have left🙂
