As I walked past a silent road
Where now no life exists
Sound of music flew to my ears
Did not know from where it came
It pulled me towards itself
Hypnotized I was
Reached a door of a ruined house
It opened with a low creak
Dust and webs adorned the room
Darkness and destruction embraced it
In a corner could see a damaged piano
Which longed to be touched
A portrait hung in the corner
With worn-out expressions
Yet the eyes had a shine
Which held numerous memories
While missing the lost ones
Drowned them in tears
An angel emerged with a masked face
Which seemed to hide a lot behind it
Empty stares and silence within
Coffin of innocence wrapped it in its arms
Everyone cried for one another
Mourned till the last breaths
Regretted the crude inventions
But from death no one can return
Time moves on
Becomes a part of history
A memory
Lessons are left behind to learn
Despite of all the facts and realities
Nothing are we willing to understand
How many think on these lines?
Reason being
We are not faced with it
Alas!!!
I walk away from those ruins
Heavy at heart
In remorse, pain, anguish
In this loss Iam also to be blamed
Some where now
Justice seems like an extinguishing flame....
