Seeking Serenity : A collection of poems

12• Voices

When the gaiety of her sister,
Hauled her to the park,
A creaking din of the void swing,
Woke up the harrow, pitch-dark,
She felt like someone nudged her,
In a trice, she turned round,
She screeched at her little brother,
An Illusion- was what she found!

She reached a shop following a smile,
But her mom wasn't there as she saw,
She asked others if she would come,
But no one cared though,
She rushed back to home,
Trying to catch her dad's voice,
But he too wasn't there,
The house was void of every noise.

Day grew darker, lights faded,
Loneliness hit hard her heart,
But cognizance sets in very soon,
That shatters her right then apart,
That with them, she is NO MORE!
She lost all her contact with Earth.
They are not in this city now,
Just as she is not in her mirth.
They miss her and so does she,
Promise! She'll meet them at her next birth.
