I am falling
down
like a tear
through your
gravity controlled
atmosphere
like autumn leaves
laden heavy with
weights

I am slipping
like drooping eyelids
feeling tired
as if they had been forced
to be wide open
for an eternity
of looking out
into faraway distance
in search of you

I am trembling
in feelings of cold
though warmly clothed
in layers of four
as cold winds howl
and frosty airs bite
hissing like a snake
that just came out
of charmer’s trance

yes, it’s sad how
innocence turned tragic
and ignorance of whims
sowed seeds of love
to reap discontent
maybe it's time
to recognise the strength
of the winds hitting my wings
and halt my flight

Very nice, Sudhir -- this weaves like a current of cold air...  perhaps a little too cold...
