Lost

Ice-cream candies and coke bottles lay in front of us as we welcome the night

Like beautiful green trres shading off their leaves in mid-autumn

Moist palms feel the hot skin on bare shoulders which shudder

Heads lay rested upon the cushioned chair and eyes shut tight with memories to capture

As the silence grew inside us in the cold dining hall, they chatter and clutter to wile away time

Amongst this crowd of made up masked faces, I sit in a lonely corner bundled in thoughts

Through the window I see the dew drops on the petals of a rose and look back into the room

Hardly two years had passed but this distance had never felt so real.. Promises for a forever never felt so fake

All these familiar smiles and laughter of innocence drops a pin of unknown silence in my ears

The interlocution of theirs intermingles thoughts like mother and child through a lonely long night

Hidden truth, broken dreams, empty souls lay bare in the party tonight like songs lifelessly sung aloud

An easy life this was for us, hiding the truth and sorrow in smiles like casing bloody scars under a scarf

As loving colours and caring hues pass the sky in a wavelength unknown, we all feel lost inside.. 

We all feel lost......
