|If Only|

If only someone,
Stalled the broken pendulum,
Oscillating slow, passionately so,
'Tween self-hate and narcissism...

If only someone,
Disrobed every blind turn,
Specking my parched, war-torn landscape
Under a merciless sun...

If only someone,
Filled my cup of hope unlearnt,
With unending, unblunted growth
And happiness unstung...

Oh, if only someone,
Brought out a chair to stunt,
My flesh, as it made love with noose,
And simply, limply-

succumbed.
