your light footfalls on the stairs
creaking apart the steps
board by board the wooden platform
disintegrates into splinters
that kiss your soles a red mark
oozing out markers of your tracks
nails creep out in the midst of all
these drama taking hold of you
only to sweep you down the banisters
from the bougainvillea wreathed balcony
falling apart , the window of your next door
has shut itself from your fallen stardust
your slow climbs up the stairless
balconies get rewarded with ignorance
untill all those rungs of your ladder
fade out and you piece by piece
turn into dust to dance all alone
in a dark cellar of your memories
