as he sleeps

the guy who invented rains
who met all the drops,
and remembered their names
lived in the monsoon

clusters of gems and crystals
snatched from above,
floated in his drink
a place where it rained
the dream he had
all drowned straight to the bottom.

Now as he sleeps
there's rain on his lips
he tosses and turns'
crystals poke at every inch
gems blind his closed eyes
old scars are,still felt every night

MysLykeMeeh said...

Hmn..I wanna meet that guy who invented rains...I want to tell him to stop raining on you, instead rain on me too coz' I'm so damn tired about this freakin' snow! --lolzz! (Just kidding)

Seriously..that was way 'too nice'...yet, there's still evidence of the wound from the past! ....

See:

In every last lines such as: lived in the monsoon; all drowned straight to the bottom; and esp. old scars are, still felt every night ...concluded the feelings of the poet--!

The real beauty of gems can be seen through... with an open eye!
