Soothing Touch

Syed Aunirbaan
I do want to CARE,

In this lonely little heart, the spaces rots to DUST

As I cry, on the verge of insanity;

My PASSIONS go down-

To HELL!

My pathetic existence, so shivered to the bones, chilled!

In this sad town, I walk alone.

On the moonlit night, I speak to the wind;
