Deserted steps,
Flowers between the cracks.
Limp vines,
Hanging,
Choking
The bark.
The chirps, now -
An occasional squeak.
Crunching leaves,
I fasten my steps.
The sun -
Dizzy.
As if afraid,
Of the drooping branches,
Curling their fingers,
A call.
Sprinting,
Panting,
Eyes -
Dilated.
A shrill whisper
Beckoning,
A lover's embrace.
A breathy chuckle.
Run.

This poem was inspired by a section at Rajghat, a park in Delhi. I used to visit this place a lot when I was a kid, every morning. But I always used to kind of quickly waddle when I was at this particular section. I don't know, it is just kind of ominous, always gave me shivers. I couldn't find a picture to attach, will do when I find one! :)
