Calypso

The headphones scream louder in my ears

Your favourite song with my tears

The screen displays flashes of past

Moments of the by gone years!

I sit upright to rest

My back that hurts it best

My head hits a thousand reels

Hearts forgotten how it feels.

Distances covered in breaths

Now seem endless even for my dreams to reach

Forgetting is a contract

I do not want to breach.

At one moment you own the world

At another you have nothing at all

When heights are covered within miles

It doesnt take long to fall

You spoke of desert dreams

Of the innumeorus screams

That echoed on the wall

And caused you pain

Again and again....

Where did i stumble?

Where did i fumble?

Was I the only cursed or

Did the skies cry with you my love?

You spoke of Gods looking from above

You spoke of verses unheard before

Nothing could surpass the beauty

Nothing undid the show

Let me live those tears again

And again be your Calypso!
