Echoes: ‘a glorious anthology… bursting with delightful poems’ Buy now. Limited stocks.

Threads

In the room full of 
Stories and imaginations 
From across the world
That fit in the fine racks,
Some give the warmth 
Of that of a bonfire;
Like the perpetual fire cracks
That echo throughout the night,
There are a few racks that 
Caste uneven light. 

There are some books 
That carry in themselves 
The chapters that call for rain,
Pain is merely a blame,
The absence of any light at all
Marks the beginning of enrage,
And if I continued to read
And surrendered to rage,
I'd end up ripping the page.
So, I leave the book half-read
To imagine a new half-way-through
That'd allow my hopes to 
Make a rope out of the threads.
