stay 22.02.2009


dark shadows extended their hands
she realized that she was in a land
where she was alone, on her very own
all her friends relations were gone.

They have disappeared like dreams after
a night, without any traces of their
presence last night, just like night flower
which with touch of harsh sunshine wither.

She called out the name of each and every soul
she knew, called out loud till her voice grew feeble
In the roar of the deep shadow about to come down
upon, like a bird of prey spreading its deadly talon.

Suddenly a pure white light came down upon her,
like a warm blanket of sunshine it surrounded her,
the talons about to strike shrunk back with fear
shrunk like darkness does when morning sun is here.

It gently lifted her, nursed her, nurtured her
Guided her through the terrain of dark fear
Walking beside, showing the way, leading her
Then the end of the darkness was seen coming near

She saw her friends and relations waiting for her
In the region of light and sunshine, happiness and cheer,
She gently turned her face to see her noble guiding star
She saw her angel shining gently standing beside her

Her creator, her eternal mother it was who came there
In the pit of darkness to guide, protect her very own
When no one else dared to venture that region of fear
She had to come down there because she was her very own.

as she looked at her with loving eyes, she turned to say,
now you can leave me your near ones are waiting there,
you have suffered enough my child now go there and play,
she clutched Her hand and said I want YOU to stay.
