Girl, Light and Headline

With the rising moon stars sprinkled high.

I sat beside the netted door 

With tears in eyes pleading to weep and sigh

But dare a drop fell outside!


Those pearls out there, and the king of the night 

Convinced me— I am a knight. 

Bowing the eyes I tackled the floor 

Where city light reflected the ghosts.


Some talking, some mocking, 

Some fighting, none stopping.

And yet the world is sleepy— walking!


Little did I know, demons are better 

Than these 'night cannibals'...

Nature gave girls pain to bear,

And world gifted us uninvited glares. 


How strong females can be?

Social media flourish praising "SHE"

But she has to see time 

Before stepping out in the real world. 

Those reflections make her sigh, 

Those people disable her to live a life...


Being a girl is never easy, 

Soft hearted was Eve and hated was Lilith! 

Even God made a mistake, 

Then how can humans be perfect?


In this world so dire,

God surely made a mistake.

The tiny particle that shredded from X

had to be fixed and not treated as a chest.


Streetlight started to blink, 

Ghosts were being dark and dim; 

No soft aroma I smelled after this,

It was 9, the clock did insist ...

Heavy sounds and nose biting Deos

loitered around more and more.


My mother then noised the clock

— to go in the room, it was time 

To put off the lights, lock the windows and doors 

And wait for next morning's headline!
