POETRY

© Tanweer Dar

Shattered dreams

Ripped apart

At the seams

From the start

​

Crumbling hope

Buried deep

Fraying rope

On slope steep

​

Vision blurs

Trembling hands

Language slurs

Dissolving sands

Even stars fade

Into the black

As choices made

Tumble and crack

​

Into the abyss

Every wish falls

The end is this

Oblivion calls

​
