She gazed at the clear sky, Not traces of a cloud nor a star. The line moon smiled at her, And suddenly turned red. Pain that she experienced, Was beyond words to explain. She felt blood gushing out, And she looked, teary eyed at the moon. Now there was...

There i lay, Separated and alone. Desperate enough, To call someone my own. Detached I was, From my home, And I now was, A building without a dome. Tears trickles down my eyes And drenched I was in it. Do I have a choice i wondered, Other than saying ‘I...
