"Her Writings" - A Poem By Deepshikha Patangay, BA III Year

The clock stopped working,

And everything around the artist paused.

She wished a new story to begin,

But the past didn't let her walk.

 

Thought to forget everything,

But was blank about the future.

Maybe there was no new chapter,

As the mind was stuck reliving it all.

 

Searched around to find a path,

The heart became a locker,

And the key was lost.

Old memories came forward,

In front of her hazel brown eyes,

And her mad heart poured out.

 

Using the pen as her power,

The paper witnessed her emotions.

Centuries passed by and,

Her writings were relieved,

On the Earth for infinite times,

By people who read her.

 

Though she turned into ashes,

She was alive through her writings,

And would live on eternally,

Till the universe would end one day.
