Craving of a candle turned into pain
Scratched and just got melted
Shouted owing to heat of tears
Got divided and detached.

Joy in life somehow disappeared
Love got silenced soon
Summer chewed the vast ocean
Darkness swallowed the moon.

Scary river pulling with the force
So long hair of the hill
Frightened air was tightly clutching
the multi-arms of mountain

Smiled the Sun looking at this
then laughed to the depth of sky
Lo! how come so soon got washed away
every shadow of the cry.

Roaming clouds now trying to imitate
the tune of dancing men
Dance of lightning turned into love
craving of love throbbed again.
