Before going ahead
I leave a part of me behind
At every turning ,

With a small desire
That whenever I look behind
I may find
Someone waving at me.


3
That tree
Is no more there
But still
Its memory
Bestows its shade
Over me here.


4
Words !
You are no friends
Nor are you time
But then
Why do you leave us sometimes

5
Are words poison?
Are words elixir?
No the words are not poison,
Nor are they elixir .
Your words mirror
Your whole being

6

For they like
The crimson of the setting sun
How long'll they sow
The seeds of fire
With their bullet proof hands ?

And how long shall we cut
The harvest of fire
How long shall our houses burn ?


7

Let them celebrate
Their victory.

You too are not alone.
Though defeated
Your truth is still with you.
