SILHOUETTE
(FICTION)
Life has seen wanderer in night,
Hopes got lost, silhouette sight,
The flair of dress, charismatic look,
Missed, a time, tragic past hook,
Aspirations without a fence in the pull,
Curios mind ran, crestfallen full,
College day’s friend mixed for fun,
Studies, classes shared fairly own,
Canteen gossips sipping tea a time,
Visit the bazaar in the group, enjoy fine,
The exam was endless passed a success,
Dreams of young mind hope to express,
Far off cities, people place unknown,
Immersed in thought career awesome,
Mind built a castle in the air a rosy future,
Beauty as a friend, the fun of life partner,
Amazing sweet home small charmed,
From hostel bed to assets crammed,
Gadgets once glued in city showroom,
Pictured all for home nice n bedroom,
Final year engineering with the certificate,
Excellent result than expectation met,
Attractive car, wife, imagination breed,
Never stop from kids, family well indeed,
Picked backpack with books, certificate,
Farewell, sweet hostel, friend intimate,
Years visited offices for a job in hope,
Utter was sock fortune ignore elope,
Hunted looks of poor family anger,
The path did miss a life future secure,
Dark a small room sheltered fare,
Small bed few plates’ cloths in care,
Moneyless fail to visit call centers,
Debt-ridden life years behind a door,
Castle in air collapsed, dreams fade,
Sweet home, wife, kid, silhouette invade,
Shrink to see pictures imagined nice,
Silent tears, lonely, hopes prejudice,
Late-night took to prowl in lanes near,
Homes are in silhouette, window lighter,
Witness shadows of joyful life wonder,
Where error did commit a pure blunder,
Destiny ever control good result, tilt,
Career, few minutes interview ever built,
Sat crestfallen in mind, heart sank,
Near a lamppost, long night tears drank,
Shivered in a fear silhouette of man,
Approaching enquired lot n warn,
Invited his home, offered tea hot,
Listened to cool sad stories never hurt,
Allowed to sleep on a bench till dawn,
Found a letter of job, address drawn,
Time rolled faster decade after discover,
Sweet home, a job, family indeed appear,
Bought my car with wife from a nearby city,
The night was too late near home, the road empty,
In a jerking car stopped on break, stood still,
The wife was angry concerned, waited at will,
Dark silhouette a young fellow near halt,
Faltering most, narrated his life no trust,
Well educated, fluent, matching the same s
tory,
Invited to own house that night never burry,
Drove my car home, disobey tears to lip,
A screen of own silhouette, tears did lick.
Life stories did know pink not for all,
Future in silhouette few rosy, rest null.
